There is a new sight in Adelaide at the moment: a 200ft painted mural from a talented group of 3 Adelaide-based artists and one international painter. Above was flown in for the project, to work along some of Adelaide's most promising talent. The result is great! Beautiful typography and wooden elements, with just enough wit too! However, the bone-breaking is in reference to Above's scapula which was unfortunately broken during the project!

One of the best sights in Adelaide, just look up.

Below, some info by Above on those involved.

JOSHUA FANNING is the director of a small, low-brow art gallery in Adelaide's seedy end of town called MAGAZINE GALLERY. Josh’s Gallery exists to keep artists from exhibiting in restaurants and he thought that bringing ABOVE to Adelaide, Australia would be a progressing move for his city of Adelaide and the residents that live there. He's glad to have been proven correct and looks forward to future projects like this in Adelaide and international artists. Visit Josh’s Gallery link here. facebook.com/​magazine.store.gallery
