Kyneton on Riverside has commissioned a breathtaking mural by Australian contemporary artist Jimmy Dvate.
The mural will feature an array of vibrant flora and fauna, creating a visual tapestry that celebrates the region’s biodiversity.
“Kyneton and Black Hill Reserve was my source of inspiration, with its stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife,” Dvate said. “I am thrilled to have the opportunity to contribute to the community by creating a mural that reflects the beauty of this town.”
Suzana Bojkovski, marketing manager for Kyneton on Riverside, said Dvate’s mural captured the personalities of the subjects he painted, and combined with his unparalleled use of colour, was set to leave a lasting impression on both locals and visitors alike.
“The mural is expected to become a focal point for art enthusiasts, photographers, and nature lovers, creating awareness of our unique environment,” Ms Bojkovski said.
“We are thrilled to have Jimmy Dvate on board for this project, his artistic vision and dedication to conservation perfectly align with our vision.”
The mural project aligns seamlessly with Kyneton on Riverside’s vision of transforming the site into a hub of creativity and culture for community. By showcasing the region’s unique flora and fauna through art, this initiative aims to not only contribute to the revitalisation of what was an empty space but also reinforce Kyneton’s role as a cultural epicentre and strengthen community identity.
The mural project is set to begin on October 16. Community members can follow the progress of this mural project through regular updates on social media.
Kyneton residents and art enthusiasts can look forward to witnessing the transformation of a blank wall into a breathtaking testament to the beauty of nature.
