Dream Home sculpture.

New recycled sculpture in Footscray. It is entitled “Dream Home” which is clever as it is made out of old mattress springs. It is the work of Frank Veldze. The information about the art is shown in one of my photos, and explains it is based on a life sized classic Australian miner’s cottage.

Thomas Chemicals Building

This is the old Thomas Chemicals building in Footscray. It is about to go under a rather large transformation.

This includes on Instagram or any where else. They are shown here purely to share, enjoy. If any artists wish me to remove any photos for any reason, please just let me know. Cheers.

This is the lovely Fitzroy High School, Falconer Street, North Fitzroy. Designed by Mcbride Charles Ryan Architects. These lovely coloured, curved brick walls are the facade to an exciting arts space for the year 11/12′s at the school. They should be inspired.
