Wall to Wall is a dynamic street art event hosted in the regional town of Benalla, Victoria. It is an immersive festival which brings world-renowned artists to create public murals across Benalla and its surrounding destinations.
In 2020, we joined the team to lead the overall production of the festival including artistic direction, curation (alongside Juddy Roller), event programming, production, marketing, hub-design and all on ground activity.
The 2020 line-up included an Australian artist contingent of Adnate (Mel), Bronte Naylor (New), Celeste Mountjoy (Mel), Dvate (Mel), Elliot Routledge (Syd), Gonketa (Mel), Kaff-eine (Mel), Ling (Mel), Lisa King (Adl/Mel), Mattie Davis (Ben), Meggs (Mel), Mic Porter (Mel), Minna Leunig (Shep), Saltwater Dreamtime (Wol), Sarah McCloskey (Syd) and UK artists Hayley Welsh, Helen Bur, Mimi Leung, Mysterious Al and Smug.
The festival also includes a programme of talks, workshops, virtual and augmented reality, a community paint program and a festival hub with programmed live music across the weekend.
A collaboration with the Benalla Art Gallery and The Social Crew, Wall to Wall Festival presented a feature exhibition, Sofles: Compendium, a retrospective of nearly two-decades of work from one of the most-watched contemporary street artists of his generation, as curated by Juddy Roller. From initial sketches to fully realised artworks, illegal tags to sponsored commissions; the exhibition showcased the life and art of Brisbane artist, Sofles.
Unfortunately the festival was cancelled due to COVID-19 sweeping the world the week before we went live.
