Commemorating past and present notions of place, Market Mural illustrates the role that public art can play in celebrating our local neighbourhoods and communities. The mural considers the history of the site as a former marketplace, now transformed into Mason Square, a residential and commercial public precinct. The mural includes text which reads, “is the old marketplace receding or appearing?” inviting the viewer to contemplate the echoes and sensory impressions of the old market and imagine how the remnants of this place move with us through time. https://mvcc.vic.gov.au/market-mural-by-rafaella-mcdonald/
