Created during the Mali Heart Arts Festival in Birchip in 2022, the Mali Hearts Art Trail is found in several locations around Birchip. The trail features stunning murals by renowned street artists who are passionate about making a meaningful and lasting contribution to the town, including a beautiful collaboration involving the Birchip P-12 school.

Working with the Buloke Shire Council and the local community, the inaugural festival in March 2022 brought the town together and attracted visitors from near and far to enjoy live art painting, augmented reality artworks, creative workshops, music and great food. 

The vibrant street art has brought life and color to the town – and put Birchip on the map as a must-see destination along the Silo Art Trail.

Kaffine has used her well known extraordinary painterly style to paint the myth of the Mallee Bull “Big Red”.

The story has it that some cows and bulls from the early farms escaped into the scrub and eked out an existence for themselves in the landscape. Not being native to the semi-arid area of the Mallee, only the toughest and most hardened of beasts could survive. One bull in particular – Big Red – was rumoured to roam the area alone, terrorising anyone in his wake.' (Kelly Fleidner) Kaffine has made a strong image of the bull rearing up along the Birchip Pub. With a myriad of techniques and paint, Kaffine has created a timeless depiction of this important story or myth.
