Yellow Submarine - Chorus Cabinet art

Painted as part of the Chorus Cabinet Art programme by Shane Walker, you'll find this mural in the Whakatāne CBD. 

A bit about the piece: "This was created while Covid19 was looming off shore. Yellow Submarine represents being in a protective bubble, we in NZ got to carry on as so called normal, isolated from the rest of the world with this monster looming at the door! "

This work is part of the Chorus Cabinet Art programme: "Our cabinet art initiative began in 2010 with a test pilot in Auckland to try to reduce the amount of vandalism to our telecommunications cabinets. It proved so successful we have extended it throughout the country and now complete on average 100 murals a year. The programme is proving invaluable as a way to help promote a sense of community belonging, identity and pride while also helping to discourage anti-social behaviour."
