The Birds and Flora mural was completed by artist TWOONE in Mount Waverley (on the eastern wall of the Richie’s IGA Supermarket) on Stephensons Road in June 2019.

Three community consultation sessions were held, including with Huntingtower School students and community members at the nearby bus stop, to inform the concept brief for an artist. The mural was funded with a $30,000 Department of Justice Graffiti Prevention Grant. The grant also funded solar lighting to illuminate the mural and increase the perception of safety at the site, and education sessions delivered to local schools to increase awareness of choices and behaviour in relation to graffiti.  

This mural completed a 3-year project in partnership with Huntingtower School, which began with Year 9 visual arts students conducting public consultation in 2016 and 2017 on local flora and fauna and the ancestry of residents. Marion Power, Head of Visual Arts at Huntingtower, was instrumental in driving and completing this project, in partnership with the supermarket.
