So in the midst of Auckland Council cracking down on all things Street Art around Auckland city, this wall came just in time! Located on the ‘official RWC walking trail’ the Auckland Council actually commissioned the Cut Collective team to paint the walls leading up the St Kevins Arcade stairs. Seemed a bit strange considering their whole crack down policy….but none the less we are all (by we all I mean myself and the locals I have spoken to around town :) ) happy to see a bit more colour and creativity in our beloved city.

Here are some pics of the wall being painted by a number of talented Auckland based artists including Component, Enforce One, Trust Me, GASP, City, Tanja Jade and Deus. Every time I walked up those stairs a new piece was going up and I luckily had my camera on hand. Here is a bit of the action captured.

I was hoping to take a few photographs of the finished wall before leaving to Thailand, but alas I ran out of time. Sorry folks, you will have to just take a look for yourself!
