Found on Manchester Street Christchurch | CCC'S Street Art Contest #261
Christchurch Restoration City: Those words gave me something to think about knowing I stood at a city that was left in ruin by the 2011 earthquake.
I recently experienced the Tasman-Nelson flooding, which was my first natural disaster experience, and it wasn't nice, so it gave me a bit of perspective of what the people of Christchurch went through in the 2011 earthquake.
Years has gone by and the city is on an ongoing restoration process as seen from the photos I couldn't get better shots but also maybe its a good thing as it reminds me of the ongoing restoration of Christchurch, a city that I really like and feel at home at despite my numerous different cities travel in the South Island.
On the other side is my entry for last week as these murals give life and hope to the city in a vibrant way.
With this portrait of a woman with angel wings, the city hopes that it will thrive again, and it is my entry to this week's contest.
The mural is located precisely on 120 Manchester Street Christchurch, and the artist of is Distranged Design.
We owe it to ourselves to make Hive great

There are a few of these, big and small all around Christchurch. Not sure how you find them thought.
I've hunted down a few around Christchurch, I will go hunting on a free day in summer for more.

Christchurch was hard hit, will take years to rebuild hopefully close to what it once looked like.
