Reka was a member of Melbourne's Everfresh crew early in his career. Now based in Berlin, he visited his hometown in early 2017 and painted a number of walls, including this enormous pair of native birds on buildings at Melbourne Polytechnic. The rosella in a flowering gum and the kookaburra surrounded by gum nuts were chosen to complement their context.
I love street art. And I love sharing the images that artists paint on walls, whether it's here in Melbourne or in other visually exciting cities. I've been photographing art in Melbourne since 2005 and love being part of the street art community.
