Tuesday Streetart: Dimmey’s Richmond – 101

In 2003, for Dimmey’s 150th anniversary, a massive mural by Hayden Dewar was added along Green Street. Stretching over 60 metres, it tells the story of Australia’s past—from gold rush days to pop culture moments. Thankfully, when…

CHRISTCHURCH, NEW ZEALAND Christchurch is such a great city for walking, and what makes it even better are all the murals you spot along the way.

Tuesday Streetart: Old Gloucester Street – 97
This street art shot was sent to me by my son, Tim. It’s been a while since he last shared photos from his walks — but that’s actually a good sign. It means he’s been busy with work. This is “Futuristic Tokyo”, a mural by street artist Dan Kitchener, in the London Borough of Camden.
The walls I wandered past
To be honest, I had no clue what to write for this week’s Live and Learn theme from Tina. I was drawing a complete blank. Then Sarah from Travel With Me suggested, “Why not talk about the murals you often post?” And I thought—yeah, why not? I always seem to find myself stopping for street…

Came across this piece in Hosier Lane by @anamillas — a skull with a single red rose beneath the words “Not the flowers we want.” It made me pause. In a laneway full of vibrant murals, this one felt quieter — but heavier. It’s a tribute to the many women still living under the weight…

Before the earthquakes hit Christchurch in 2011, street art was mostly seen as graffiti or vandalism.
