Medieval to Metal

Local artist, Joel Hammonds has completed the latest eye-catching mural in Ballarat’s public art collection.

The striking black, pink, purple and blue mural can be seen at the Annexe Wall in Alfred Deakin Place, right near the Ballarat Art Gallery.

The mural is a nod to Ballarat’s live music scene, as well as the acclaimed Medieval to Metal exhibition currently on show at the Ballarat Art Gallery.

The mural includes reference to:

• Stickers from Ballarat’s live music venues on Joel’s own guitar

• The guitar player from Crossroads Music signage

• Brick backgrounds from the live music venue Volta

• Poster pillar on Armstrong Street South that is used to promote upcoming shows

• Civic Hall signage
