Haha in Town part 1

My good friend HaHa just turned up as a part of his round the world trip smashing out art and investigating the alternative. If you havent already, head over to his blog here. The blog is a fictitious tale based on actual events and photographs continuing on from his comic ‘The conspiracy of HaHa’. Here are a few images from the first few days since he arrived. More to come…

London

New work up in Sclater street carpark off Brick Lane, East London. Cheers to all those who came down.

The talented Kiah Roache-Turner made a trip over to Melbourne the other week to record this mammoth paste-up going up and here is the result. Massive thanks to pld for putting the sounds together and to DENSUNSHINE.com for hooking this up.

Abbotsford Wall

Thanks to BUZZ PRODUCTS for giving me permission to work on this wall. Some are calling it the largest Paste-up in the country which I think sounds pretty cool but am not sure at this stage if it is or not. Was a lot of fun putting it up and special thanks to my good friend Lisa for giving a helping hand. Will have a video of the day up hopefully soon for you to check out.

Country

I just got back from a few weeks up in Woorabinda QLND the other day and had an amazing time working with the kids up there on a few projects. I will have some photos soon from the trip but here is something else I got up to. I cant wait for the first person to drive past this and bug out. Its on a road that you may get 1 car a month drive down. Middle of nowhere.

The Big Show

Make sure if you are in Melbourne on the 5th of April to come along and check this out.

Stop! motion.

Thanks to all those who came down to help out getting these cowboys up on the wall. Special thanks to Caro and Sarah Guthrie for helping with the stop motion, Lisa Crutchley for getting sticky with glue and Edwards Moore architecture firm who let me use their wall.

Just finished putting up this monster of a paste-up in Fitzroy. Am working on a small stop-motion clip of it going up now and will have it up soon so you can see it in all its glory! If you want to see it up close its on Moor St close to the corner of Brunswick St Fitzroy.
Thanks to everyone who helped out!

DECAY

A year on and I have a look at some of my early paste-ups and how they are fairing on the walls of Brunswick, Melbourne.
