The Converse Sneakers Clash Wall in Fremantle was completed yesterday — a collaborative effort between the community and three talented street artists.
Via the hashtag #sneakerclashfreo hundreds of submissions were sent in from people across Australia. The top submissions were selected and then transformed by the artists and brought to life on the streets of Fremantle. The completed work features 14 community suggestions. The piece is now a feature for the public to enjoy, displaying the community’s creative spirit.

THE YOK. Character-based works of this Australian-born artist have been spotted on the streets of countries near and far as he's been making his way around the world. For some years now, the droopy eyes and twisted moustaches of Yok’s black-lined characters have been staring aimlessly from Australian alleyways, zines and gallery walls.
