Found on Athol Street, Queenstown | CCC'S Street Art Contest #273

Now move away from Christchurch to see murals from other regions of the country.

You probably might expect Queenstown to have lots of murals but not really. I was very luck to find this on 14 Athol Street, Queenstown when I was worked in the town and was looking for a public toilet 🚻.

The mural is titled Rejuvenate and it was painted by Tess Sheerin.

This mural was an inspiration for Tess during a time tough mental breakdown of her life with the bee representing simple things in life, the moa a big flightless bird symbolizing it is okay to rest and do nothing and the kiwi bird with stairs representing her physiological journey.

I am not only to find this mural but also the meaning behind it.
Here's a link to the mural if you care to read up more about it:https://mentalhealth.org.nz/stories/story/tess-sheerin-a-story-of-rejuvenation

With this mural I am entering for this week's contest.

Reading the meaning, it makes a lot of sense looking at the images again. At first, my mind was trying to figure out what the artist is trying to convey. Looks simply beautiful overall, great spot :)

I've had these photos for months and never understood what the mural meant until yesterday when I read up on it before sharing it. It really has an interesting meaning to it and I appreciate murals more if I get to know the meaning behind it.

Yes yes, you understand them better and know where the artist is coming from with creating that piece of artwork.
