Egmont Street

January 09, 2017 by Kelly Spencer
 

I was recently one of 5 artists invited to spruce up Wellington’s Egmont St with fresh murals on garage doors.

For my piece I took inspiration from an old tale of an abandoned deceased horse, sadly left in the street unclaimed and upsetting local residents. I felt the horse deserved more respect than that, so created this ode to said horse, galloping into the afterlife as a magnificent unicorn. The site is also bookended by Scout (hairdressers) and Boar and Blade (barbers), hence the emphasis on flowing rainbow locks.

Click through to the awesome video created by Wrestler, documenting all 5 murals, plus the article on the project from Stuff website.
