It was an honour to have worked alongside artist Scott Nagy @scottnagyartist and Janne Birkner @krimsone and the Barunga West Councill on this Silo art project located in the town of Bute, South Australia. 

The artwork concept was based on representing women in regional areas, through telling the story of a girl pushing a vintage bike alongside the train tracks (like the ones that run alongside the silo). 

The theme requested by the community was bright colours, and local agriculture, flora and fauna. This has been represented through the use of the Rooster as well as Sheep, which is a prominent agricultural aspect of Bute.

The rooster is also the mascot for the Bute football, netball, basketball, cricket and tennis club.

The birds around her are Rainbow Bee-eaters, which are seasonal breeding migrants to South Australia. As well as a Superb Fairy Wren.

The background entails the Hummocks which are a range of hills in the northern Mount Lofty Ranges extending north from the eastern edge of Yorke Peninsula in South Australia.

The old stone shed is accurate to the area / time period.

Special thanks to Barunga West Council Mayor Leonie Kerley & Grants and Investment Coordinator Bridget Johns and the community of Bute for making this happen!
