As it’s been a while since our last post on Los Angeles street art, I figured it was time to explore the different street art that can be found nearly halfway around the world from the west coast of the United States, Sydney, Australia. The largest city in Australia and an immigration centre for people from around the world, the diversity in Sydney means its also a hotbed of culture and art. Here’s a look at how this mix of people can result in interesting and fun street art!
This homage to 1980’s video games is my favourite one. I’d love to have Pac Man up on my wall!

This red old-model car and its floating hearts paints a pretty scene.

In appreciation of American civil rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr., this mural seems appropriate for such a multicultural city.

1930s cartoon favourite Felix the Cat looks right at home in the country that reportedly inspired his creation. I like the little characters below him too!

Now this one is not only a really good use of existing space but it also really creeps me out. Scary!

In a fitting nod to the neighbouring sea, this colourful example declares “Bikini Zone” ahead.

This weird but wonderful piece shows a jack-o-lantern-headed man talking with an apple head. Though I’ve got no idea what it’s supposed to symbolise, I just love it. Any guesses on what they’re saying to each other? Leave your ideas in the comments section!
