Sydney University tunnel of art grafitti and words of expression

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of Art.

So along the Sydney university tunnel  and this is what I found. Everyone you must go and check it out! Totally rad place to walk though.


I couldn't believe my own eyes, so much colour and tagging all over the walls. There is so much to look at when you walk through it, I know some people get scared because they may think they might get mugged down there. But it is so crazy to think how many different artists or gangs have gone through this tunnel over the years and what stories they tell we will never know.


When I was down there no-one was around and surprisingly there was alot of light shining through during the daytime. I must say I probably wouldn't go there at night just incase the homeless sleep down there, as it did have a smell to it if you know what I mean.

Everywhere you turn it just gets better and better.


Aspire is the key word that reflects the art piece here, I can see why they wrote it. As local walkways or spaces are inviting for graffiti artists to share art and communication through meaning.


I really loved the Ninja Turtle graffiti piece, it reminds me when I was a kid I loved watching the TV show. Again we see Aspire on the ground, it makes me wonder if it is the same artist and what they are representing?


The sweetest hand writing and memory that someone has left behind on there way through the tunnel of art. Stuff like this makes you realise that art is aspiring and inspiring and no matter who you are or where you are you can always leave your words and your mark in life on a wall. Just don't get caught ok. Art is beauty, wisdom and self expression. Long live grafitti!!!!
