Condor Tower Car Park Launch

carpark_thumb1art_exhibition_badgeOn Saturday July 25th, we will unveil what we deem to be the largest permanent street art exhibition in the southern hemisphere. Housed at the base of the newly built Condor Tower, the 5 level car park has seen more than 60 artists add their artwork to the space, mostly locals with a handful from over east and a couple of internationals.

Over a year ago, the Design/Construction Manager of ‘Condor’ approached us and communicated his dislike for grey walls, especially in a car park environment. We took it upon ourselves to transform the entire space into an enormous cavern of bold, bizarre and colourful artwork.

Stormie Mills, Reka, Creepy, Daek, DrewFunk, Grumpster, Pat Doherty, Rifs, Trevor6025, Kid Zoom, Timothy Rollin, Hurben, Showbiz, Shime, Jodee Knowles, THNK, RegID, Griv, Yo-Yo are just a small selection of the artists who have donated their time to the project.

So please, support your local artists and don’t miss out on this rare opportunity!

Condor Tower Carpark

The Carpark

Theme
There are 5 levels and we have developed a theme for the carpark based on the elemental planes of Earth, they are as follows:

  • Space
  • Sky
  • Land
  • Underwater
  • Core

‘Land’ and ‘Sky’ levels incorporate private garages and are twice as large as the other levels. The ‘Core’ is half-sized and in the dank depths of the ground. There are also rumours of another level above ‘Space’ entitled ‘Heavens’.

Structure
The Condor Tower is that lime-yellow building you may have noticed ‘pop’ up recently, garnishing Perth’s crane-ridden skyline. The carpark is mostly underground, with the ‘Core’ level actually being below the water level.

What Next?
We intend to document the Condor Tower Carpark project, so if you are a filmmaker/photographer and wish to help out, email us and we’ll organise a good time.
