Looking for change
Artist: InkHunter
This artwork is about needing to move in a positive direction and breaking away from past. This highlights the connection to oil and gas that has hurt our planet and created immense stress on ecosystems and habitats. As humans we have destroyed more half worlds rainforest so we need to swing the tide and bring back nature to be wild free again.
InkHunter
InkHunter is a Sydney-based street artist specialising in large-scale murals, installations, and purpose-driven artworks. As a third-generation artist, he has crafted his own unique approach to storytelling through street art by breaking away from traditional art forms and conventions applied by his mother and grandmother.
Few places better reflect Sydney’s continually changing face than Darling Harbour. Ancient boundary between Wangal and Cadigal clans; destructively industrialised from the earliest days of midden-burning colonial settlement; workshop, woolstore, depot and engineroom for an emerging metropolis; reborn in the 1980s as a place of leisure, entertainment and cultural activity; and now aspiring to become the World’s Best Waterfront.
