Hosier Lane | Street Art
Firstly I am sorry that my posts are drubs lately, this working and commuting the long distance for work is not allowing my blog to state update. Plus the fact that I have had trips in Dusseldorf, Venice, through in some training for work and an engagement and you end up with the blog at the bottom of the priority list. I did, however, manage to squeeze some time in to show you Hosier Lane. Hosier Lane is a cute little lane in Melbourne filled with colourful street art. Melbourne or Australia, in general, might be known for its obsession with quality coffee but it looks like street art is up there with coffee, shopping and gastronomy when it comes to thing that get Australians pulses rising.
Hosier Lane is bursting with colour that it has now become part of the popular attractions in the city.

This little lane not only that wall to wall graffiti or street art as it now called but everything in sight has had a lick of paint too. From doors to rubbish bins. Melbourne much like London where I live has seen a shift and places that were run down with graffiti have now be gentrified and are now some of the most notable parts to live in in London. This also applies to Melbourne in that much these type of place have been gentrified drawing more interests around the world and thus draw even more attention to their acclaimed "urban" art.
Perhaps depicting our narcissism | Our crazy obsession with the self/ie!
The Lane is alive with colour!
You will find amazingly beautiful street art in the capital, from the little beautiful spot I mentioned in my post on Melbourne's Best Brunch Spots to the popular Hosier Lane. This little place is not hard to find although hidden away. It's a very short walk from Flinder's Street Station and across from Federation Square. If you are a lover of Street be sure to check London's Shoreditch or Iceland's Reykjavik street art on your travels.
