Street Art in Little Smith Street Fitzroy, Melbourne - 1 Decomposition



Late last year I had an appointment in Fitzroy and went for a wander down a few side streets to see what street art I would find. The following post is the first of a series showing what I consider to be the best works walking north in Little Smith Street, in October 2013. They are not all to my taste but they are well done.

Detail of a mural. Unfortunately the ground level section of this piece has been vandalised with spray paint.
