Gone Fishing - Chorus Cabinet art
Painted as part of the Chorus Cabinet Art programme by Shane Walker, you'll find this mural near the Whakatāne riverfront.
A bit about the piece: "Seagulls are always fishing for food morsels so I thought what better way to depict your classic Kiwi fisherman. Dropping a line off the wharf in summer attire, hoping for that PB snapper!"
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."
