Recognition

i was blown away by the quality of this street art on the side of a 10 story building in Sydney.

 

It is the striking face of Aboriginal elder Jenny Munro, a campaigner of aboriginal rights, painted by acclaimed street artist Matt Adnate.

 

Framed by dripping blue, black and red paint, Ms Munro looks into the distance with a mountain sunrise painted in her irises.

 

The portrait of Ms Munro took Adnate five days to paint, and It's a face filled with reflection and strong resolve.
