Bus Station new mural

May 2026

Next time you walk by the Adelaide Bus Station on Franklin Street take a look at the eastern wall.  The wall has been transformed into a large scale abstract mural by local Adelaide based artist Matt Fortrose.  The work is a collaboration of Matt Fortrose and Lewis Constantine.  Lewis is an artist living with disability and his involvement is supported by Tutti Arts, Co-Arts and his carers who are also professional practicing artists.  Matt is an established and highly respected contemporary artist known for his abstract, large scale works that explore colour, form and spatial interaction.  

The mural's design incorporates layered forms, subtle colour transitions, and textured surfaces that respond to light and movement.  It includes a graffiti management approach to improve the presentation of this Council-owned asset.
