"Hide and Seek" Mural, Sydney

"Hide and Seek" Mural, Sydney

Painted on the side of a house on the corner of Mary Street and Lennox Street, the "Hide and Seek" mural is a relatively new work. It was created by West Australian visual artist Kyle Hughes-Odgers as part of the local Perfect Match program.

Known for his great illustrations for children’s books, the artist aims at presenting the ideas of nature and life in a colourful and rather playful way. A game of hide and seek – captured in this particular mural – featuring a giant playing with three small kids, who cunningly hide in his pocket, is yet another good example of his style.
