The kangaroo symbolises First Nations Australians’ complex systems of lore, which continue to this day. It felt surreal & special to be supported to paint about the ongoing battle between two legal systems, right in the middle of Melbourne’s legal precinct. I don’t have the answers as to how the country is going to fix our colonial wrongs, or the devastating legacy of the Frontier Wars, illegal occupation & dispossession; but I do know that we have to keep asking the questions, & placing them in the minds of those with the power to change law & policy.I encourage law & policy makers, & the public to think about this battle as they pass my mural at 540 Little Bourke st. I hope that when the mural’s gold chrome paint reflects flashes of sunlight into surrounding offices & skyscrapers, the occupants pause to consider the meaning of the mural. There are many public depictions of the Imperial unciorn in the legal precinct; I’m stoked that mine now joins the herd.\"","author_name":"Andrew Haysom","author_url":"https://streetartcities.com/users/5c4aca86-0978-4a7a-9fd6-80a7dc17f686","thumbnail_url":"https://streetartcities.com/media/6/64b322e6-8f00-4d3d-acd6-364b8c81c466/1024.jpg","thumbnail_width":1024,"width":480,"height":480,"html":"","cache_age":3600}
