Take a close look at Vero Coya's mural and you'll find the rhythms of the natural world woven into every element.

Vero Coya | Interwoven
📍5-9 Bridge Street East, Benalla, rear wall

Vero Coya’s mural creates a powerful dialogue between the organic world and the built environment, scaling microscopic rhythms of sun and rain into a striking, wall‑sized meditation on connection. By dissolving the boundary between individual and ecosystem, she invites viewers to see themselves as active threads within a larger, interwoven whole. Through rich texture and flowing forms, the work becomes a call for stewardship - a reminder that we are inseparable from the cycles that sustain us, and responsible for the future we help shape.

Hand-painted lines, a trade skill, and a simple message: be kind.

Mattie Davo | Be Kind, It's Gangster
📍87 Nunn Street, Benalla (Laneway through to Denny Street Carpark)

Mattie Davo brings his signwriting craft to the festival with a mural that bridges trade skill and fine art, proving that precision and personality can coexist. Every hand‑painted line carries the heritage of his practice, transforming a functional surface into a bold visual statement. Anchored by the ironic phrase Be Kind, its Gangster , the work plays with cultural expectations, suggesting that choosing kindness is the most rebellious act of all. It’s a powerful reminder of the authority and authenticity found in work shaped by the human hand.

Western Australian roots, Victorian landscape, and a burst of colour that stops you mid-step.

Sarsar | Field Notes
📍107 Bridge Street East, Benalla

Sarah McCloskey (SARSAR) shifts from her intricate realism to a bolder, more painterly approach for her mural, Field Notes, using the textured brick surface as a space for experimentation. Framed like an open sketchbook, the work features Eucalyptus preissiana and Hakea laurina - native species that connect her Western Australian roots to the Victorian landscape. With an amplified colour palette and a radiant neon orange backdrop, she transforms a quiet side street into a vibrant moment of discovery, inviting passersby to pause and appreciate the often‑overlooked beauty of their own local flora.

Krimsone has taken something personal and made it universal.

Krimsone | Peaches
📍37-41 Bridge Street East, Benalla

Krimsone’s mural explores the inner landscape of anxiety through a deeply personal lens, using fellow artist Peaches as the central subject. By grounding abstraction in a familiar face, he makes the intangible weight of nervous tension physically visible. The quiet intensity of Peaches’ gaze anchors the work, revealing vulnerability through Krimsone’s signature colour and form. It’s a raw, empathetic study of human connection, turning private struggle into a shared moment of honesty.

Across 84 square metres of brick, Juzpop captured intimate human emotion you can feel from the street.

Juzpop | Open your eyes

Jasmine Crisp | Tell me I'm pretty, tell me I'm good.
📍22 Carrier Street, Benalla

Jasmine Crisp’s mural, Tell me I’m pretty, tell me I’m good , delivers a witty critique of decorative public art, pairing lush floral imagery with a cascade of gold stars to parody our hunger for validation. Beneath the humour sits a celebration of her love for painting shiny things and the quiet joy she finds in nature. Created at a massive scale under a tight deadline, the work showcases her technical rigour and determination, transforming a challenging wall into a bold, self‑aware statement about beauty, originality and artistic confidence.
