Since 2014 more than 90 stunning site-specific street art-
works have been created through Perfect Match building
the Inner Wests reputation as a destination to experience creativity at its best, a diverse and vibrant street art capital of Australia.
What started as a unique Council initiative to counter unwanted graffiti has evolved to a pioneering placemaking
public art program.
This book is all about the collaborative journey between
artists and home owners. From getting to know each other, new perspectives and connections flourish between neighbours and artists. Artworks are loved and approved. Locals, artists and their friends join artwork celebrations filled with laughter, cakes and champagne, sidewalk games and speeches about local stories and meanings behind the artwork. In a space once vandalised and unloved, artworks are adored, protected and on show to the world.
