Street Art in Melbourne: Brunswick 2025

Today I bring you more Brunswick Street art that I have photographed mainly on bike rides.  It is a lot of colour and whimsy in Brunswick with a decent helping of birds, flowers, animals and nostalgia.

The above cat in a wet weather clothing with his ball of string and fishing line made me smile when I saw it in East Brunswick.

Tin Tin artworks at Quarry Hotel, Lygon Street in East Brunswick

Above (tiger) and below (astronaut): Ewing Street


Weston Street near the corner of Sydney Road

Birds, above and below: Opposite the Brunswick East Primary School on Nicholson Street



Above and below: A front fence by Elizabeth Gleeson in St Philip Street, East Brunswick, and a back garage in East Brunswick.


Above and below: Wilson Avenue near Sydney Road across from Barkly Street.  (I love the "Women need men like fish need bicycles" badge because my sister had one like it when I was a teenager.)


Above and below - alley behind the Sydney Road Bunnings.  (There's a moose loose with a paintbrush!)


Pizza on lane behind Lygon Street between Albion and Blyth St

Red Wattlebird on Albion Street across the road from Brunswick West Primary School.

Flowers on Edward Street near Sydney Road

Gig on a back lane behind Lamond Hotel by corner of Blythe and Lygon Streets.

Garfield in North West Brunswick.  (Another nostalgic moment that takes me back to my childhood)

3RRR Building on corner of Blyth and Nicholson Streets.  The picture with its quote "nemesis of mediocre radio everywhere" takes me back to listening to The Ghost - aka Stephen Walker - on this radio station in my student days.


Brunswick Road: the picture is of people threading together Australia and Asia. 

 Ibis (aka bin chicken) on Union Street.

We finish with Leunig's Mr Curly with his teapot, books and wagon painted on a fence by the Merri Creek bike track.

  1. Your photos are wonderful. I love the murals, and appreciate that a bicycle is so much better for getting those images than trying to get a picture from a moving car!

Thanks for dropping by. I love hearing from you. Please share your thoughts and questions. Annoyingly the spammers are bombarding me so I have turned on the pesky captcha code (refresh to find an easy one if you don't like the first one)
