Time is precious, flying by. I am old yet young inside. Present time etched in our
faces generation after generation. Our youth grasp their future, fearless yet wisdom.
Celebrating their journey with confidence as their mentors have, before them. Never
forgetting those, who have enriched our lives, shining lights forever.

My main goal intention to display on the mural is to take the mind on an adventure
into the forever evolving future of mother nature’s wilderness, and human living
platforms, within the ecosystem. I am here to flourish the viewer’s eyes into the
creativity of everyone’s life changing exciting future.

PROSPERITY
IN THE AGE OF
TOMORROW

The Hub Inc and
Bendigo Bank Sheffield
Seldom can we conceive where future generations will go. With science at the
forefront of progress for those born to the technological world, can Mankind’s
destructive past be contained? May we see the return of threatened species from the
brink of extinction and beyond, restoring the precious seeds of life.

We are smothering mother Earth in concrete, tar, plastics and chemicals.
Why go to Mars when we are turning our Earth into Mars. We must help
nature fight back. Fruit comes from trees, not supermarket shelves. Plant
trees and veg. & flowers for the Bees.

THE CHANGEOVER

After watching Earthlings for many centuries do little to save their planet,
Aliens came to free Earth from Humans’ environmental destruction.
The Animals took charge and so began the restoration of our planet.
This a snapshot of a bus stop in the future.
….And what happened to the human race..?

‘TRAIN IN VAIN’
by Steve Monk (Vic)
Sponsored by:

and Streamline Upholstery
& Trimmings
Mesmerized passengers stare at their phones and VR devices whilst silently riding
the filthy, forty year old train. Hooded clothing is worn to remain anonymous and to
protect their heads from polluted air, acid rain and burning sun. Experiences occurring
now and into the future.

ROLAND THE MURAL FEST MASCOT
Since the early days of the Mural Fest at Sheffield
the Tasmanian Devil has been a Mascot for
the festival, In 2013 the International Mural
Fest team held a competition to name the
Tassie Devil Logo and the winning name
was ROLAND.
Since the 2014 International Mural
Fest funds have been raised to support
the “Save the Tassie Devil Fund” and
ROLAND handed over a cheque in the
July of that year and since then regular
funds have been sent to the fund.
In 2019 two Artists Lindsay Gardam and
Ferri Lee approached the Davies Construction
International Mural Fest to paint an anamorphic
picture which uses distortion to create a 3D image
of ROLAND on the pathway around Mural Park, these
two Artists thought it would be a fun project for them and it
would be a learning process to paint an anamorphic image as well as add a little extra
amusement for visitors to the Park.
As you travel around the Park stop and take a photo with ROLAND.
