🌈 Paint the Streets: Ideas, inspiration & documentation

[RosariaRebel (Rosaria Burchielli)]

Hey everyone,
It’s hard to believe the ‘End Black Friday’ (EBF) action happened on November 27 last year… that’s three months ago!! And there’s been a LOT of water under the XR bridge since then. And so many more exciting actions are in the pipeline. But, in the name of documentation, I really want to share these beautiful photos from EBF. I also want to do a shout out to the amazing XR Moreland (VIC) crew and all the incredible rebels who supported the action from all over Melbourne, especially the XRVicarts rebels @jess and @kate_s, who went above and beyond.

God, how many months has this project been on the back burner? Nothing like a pandemic and lock downs to kill your motivation. Anyway, this time the lockdown motivated me to get some old projects finished… like this one. Five months after the top part was done I have finally finished cutting the lower part of the stencil. If we manage to have a Spring Rebellion I’ll be putting some of these up around the Inner West. Might send a few down to you Costas. 1.4m wide x 1.8m high

Love it! I want one for an alleyway near the Adani, Origin, Arrow and Santos offices here in Brisbane. Did you literally make the sun as a Lino cut?

It was cut from vinyl rather than cut from lino.

I will try to send some to Melbourne and Brisbane as soon as I can get some more paint (damn you lockdown).

Anyone interested in making some stencils, posters, or stickers for duty of care actions in September and October?
