“Dimension Radical” is a huge skate culture themed mural project Painted at the Port Melbourne skatepark. This skatepark is unique in that it resides under an overpass with the skate transitions and features of the park built into, and around the pillars that the overpass rests on.
The work features 14 murals – painted on both sides of 6 pillars and one side of a further 2. Each pillar side is part of a sequential story told in an alien language. The murals feature iconic skateboard graphics mashed together with my own unique characters and imagery to create a strange, surreal and vaguely psychedelic narrative.
