Aboriginal Boy - Adnate

Just got home from the hairdressers and feel much better now my hair has been cut, I was beginning to look like an old English sheep dog.

Here is a photo taken in Newcastle. I have been wanting to take a photo of this aboriginal boy at the Bolton Street car park in the centre of Newcastle for a while and finally got round to going there.

The street artist goes by the name of Adnate and is a Melbourne street artist. This artwork was made for the Hit the Bricks festival a few years ago in Newcastle.

Fabulous painting. The eyes are an indication of what the aborigines had to go to when the white men came to take their land. Thanks for sharing.

Great minds think alike. Had my mop chopped yesterday too, I looked like a mop on legs. Love Adnate's work.

[Babs]

@golftragic I was having trouble seeing because my fringe was so long. I daren't cut it myself in between visits because I can never cut it straight.

I love Adnate's work too and his other artwork in Newcastle disappeared because the building was demolished to make way for yet another high rise. http://365project.org/onewing/365/2019-02-28

@onewing Bloody high-rises, human bird boxes!!!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Compelling and striking- hopefully this one won't go the way of the other.

It is so much like our mural down here that Adnate did :)
