Our recent mural for Hubspot in Sydney city. We sat down with Grant Molony to listen and learn more about their story behind this mural.

This mural portrays an emotional cultural connection, tell us a bit about the story and your inspiration?

The Whale is very important as a symbol of connection between coastal mobs through the migration story. My brother's dot work is showing travel and significant sites along the coastline like breeding grounds. It is built off a black base to show the night sky with stars a very important navigation tool.

How do you create such a harmonious and balanced artwork while collaborating with two other artists - Russ and Jason ?

I think it has been built over years of working together basically coming down to complete trust in each other's work with a common goal of producing something we are proud to put our name to.

Before putting paint to wall, how did you want your design to deliver in the space?

We wanted the design to flow and exaggerate length while still being readable with the elevator bays becoming an invitation to interact with the work. This will be a piece where you continually notice small details rather than viewing the work once and taking it all in.

Tell us your favourite go-to techniques/processes with creating such an intricate and detailed mural?

Layering is the foundation of all our team's work. It allows both room to breathe while giving the viewer opportunities to discover new intricacies each time they view the work. In this mural I especially love how the work reflects off the glass to both appear to float and perfectly mirror the work.
