Wheat Bags to Sand bags

Description

‘Wheat bags to Sand bags’ depicts a snapshot in time in rural Australia at the outbreak of the First World War. This was a small but pivotal part of our nation’s history. Australia had only recently achieved nationhood in 1901 when its young men and women were called to service in 1914. At great personal and community cost, farmers and farm labourers from this district exchanged their wheat fields for the battlefields of Europe. This artwork is a tribute to them.

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?
