A 50-metre long road mural, named the Point Cook Rainbow Serpent, have been unveiled in Point Cook.
The mural was created at the Point Cook Pop Up Park to mark Reconciliation Week.
Artists Fiona Clarke and Kenneth McKean worked with the community to paint the artwork across nearly 400 hours.
The mural features, the rainbow serpent weaving through the Point Cook Pop Up Park and a colourful pedestrian crossing connecting people to a place of gathering.
The mural was unveiled by developer Stockland and not-for-profit group CoLocal on Saturday, June 3.
Clarke and McKean said they were excited to have been selected for the mural project.
“We wanted to create an artwork where the local community could come and enjoy a bright, colourful park and learn about First Nations culture, along with the local environment and wildlife,”
they said.
“We chose the theme of the rainbow serpent for its strong connection to the Aboriginal community. The many colours we used represent the diversity of the Point Cook community and you’ll see local wildlife like the Blue Wren, Orange-bellied Parrot, and New Holland Honeyeater in the artwork, too”
