Awanui Art


We were travelling through Awanui last week and finally got to see the finished result of this mural that has taken a few weeks to complete. Although this might look quite simple it actually isn't. The artist is Cody Paparoa who lives in the nearby town of Kareponia. It's been painted on the front wall of a Chorus exchange building - Chorus is the company who basically own the phone/internet/fibre/broadband lines in New Zealand and technicians can enter these buildings all over the country as part of repairing problems. 

Linking up with Mural Monday.

This is lovely! I couldn't say why I like it so much, maybe the contrast of the angled patterns to the wild free flying bird, I don't know but it is beautiful.

It's really quite stunning and well done. I especially love the French curves.
