Artist Daek William
Mt Lawley
2016

This ‘hole in the wall’ coffee bar on the corner of Walcott Street and Raglan Road in Mount Lawley features a mural by local artist Daek William. Located on the corner of a retail shopping complex in a prominent position, highly visible from Walcott street, the mural invites passers-by to engage with the tenancy. The ‘firefighter girl’ theme reflects the original owners profession. The artwork also includes associated fire-fighting themed text integrated into the functional operation of the tenancy and hand painted commercial signage.
