Street life for me is {Vibrant}. Graffiti is {Vibrant} and to be totally honest Melbourne, Australia is {Vibrant}. Yes you've got it - the theme for Share Six for June is {Vibrant}
The definition that I googled for {Vibrant} is the following:
energetic, bright, and full of life or excitement: The city is youthful, vibrant – an exciting place.
For me graffiti does that - it adds color to a city. Its for the most part an expression of art, and what I saw in Melbourne traveling in and out of the city and within the city was a lot of expressions of art. Melbourne itself, is a vibrant city and all my research of places to visit agreed with that expression. We started out at a street cafe for breakfast and then next on the agenda was time out walking the streets.
However, there were specific areas that I requested that we go and see and for the purpose of today's blog I am going to share the Graffiti we found on Hosier Land, Duckwood Place and AC/DC lane
Here is just a little bit of the vibrance that Melbourne has to offer.
I will confess that it is a little different to the graffiti that I have found in the USA. However, it was still fun to walk these streets and study the walls and enjoy the creative talent where we found it.
More about Melbourne to come. We toured the city, walked along the river, visited the historical gardens, watched a protest parade, and just missed seeing a bunch of people arrested, although we could hear the sirens not far from us. A lot for one day but it was all good. I am looking forward to sharing more on the city of Melbourne again soon.
This is a circle blog and as I mentioned, we have some very talented artists in the group. Take some time to follow the links and see what they have for you this month. My incredibly talented friend Katherine of Cobert Photography is up next. I can't wait to see what she has to share. You can see more of her work by clicking on her Instagram page.
Until next time, stay well.
