Australian artist creates the largest public artwork in the Southern Hemisphere

Famous for his large scale artworks, Melbourne-based street artist Kitt Bennett (previously) just unveiled this mind-blowing 300-metre long ground mural that makes up the frames to the animation cycle of a falling man.

The colossal piece is the result of a collaboration with street art collective Juddy Roller.

“The mural, named ‘Revolution’, combines Bennett’s passion for producing large-scale works with the latest in satellite technology.”

Located in Port Melbourne’s Fisherman’s Wharf precinct, the artwork takes up a whopping 9,000 square metres of space.

SWIPE➡️ “9 till 5” This 300 metre long ground mural makes up the frames to the animation cycle. Thank you to @taubmans and @monarchpainting for suppling the paint and tools. And @juddyroller + @sroandco for making the project possible.

The mural is also the world’s largest independently produced animated ‘gif-ti’ (a term used to describe GIF-style street art created to be viewed online).

Juddy Roller Gallery will host an exhibition on December 13th, featuring an animated video on the story behind the massive artwork.
