Noisy Miner and Common Heath

Description

"Noisy miners are native and are from the honeyeater family, and aren't to be mistaken with common myna birds - which are a starling bird and an introduced species. Noisy miners love eating the callistemon that grow along the site, and I wanted to create a sense of movement on the wall with shadow play." - Melanie Caple.

Commissioned by @kingstoncouncil, the wall stands guard at the entrance to a Lantrak site where earth is moved and stored.

May 2025: sections of the wall have sadly been tagged.

Hi, my name is Neda. What started off as exploring the street art during lunch time, has over time turned into an obsession. ‘Going for a drive’ or ‘a bit of a walk’ would take me to parts of this beautiful country that I would otherwise never see. Street art hunting has become my fitness regime and the lens through which I explore the world. We are incredibly fortunate to have such a thriving street art scene and a group of dedicated hunters in this city. Let us show you around?
