Found on Armagh Street Christchurch | CCC'S Street Art Contest #252

So this is one of the many murals I hunted for on the 23rd of December 2024.
This mural is a political one about Dawn Raids.

The artist is Kophie, a Samoan who has created an art to tell a story about the strength and resilience of the Pacific people.

Every nation always has that tough history to tell.
Here is a link to the past about the Pacific people of New Zealand and the history behind this mural: https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/top/533104/new-mural-in-otautahi-pays-tribute-to-pacific-resilience-during-dawn-raids

With the first image, I am entering for this week's contest.

The mural is found on 186 Amargh Street Christchurch City Center.

You are welcome Joe
I miss you too and all the business from hive. I want to share so much from this trip.
First laundry, garden and the things that you do once back. I have been away 6 weeks. I only hoped for 4. Luckily 95% of my inside plants survived. Next week I have to start the last renovations again… and packing boxes 📦 haha a never ending story.
Exciting times ahead and 3 long drives south for the move before winter.

I did my friend. Thank you so much.
Have a nice evening, sleep well.

I can imagine the chores that's needs your attention not to mention continuing with the renovations. Welcome home Jackie, good to hear from you.
Take it easy in the midst of your busy schedules.
Traveling is always exciting especially now with your van. Looking forward to posts about them.

Thank you so much Joe 🤗 it is so good to be home again.
Just getting to sleep is hard. There is no darkness and it is light day and night here now. So I have to get into a new rhythm fast… haha
Will do as soon as I have to be fit and healthy the next months to get it all done.
Yes, exciting in every way. Thanks!
Have a good morning.

Damn it that must be hard to sleep. Maybe the dark curtains and lights off will help. I've never experienced light time day and night. Our world is quite interesting.
I hope you adjust soon.

Enjoy your day

It is… we do ‘t have any lights on. And black darkout curtains. But still light gets in hahaha
It will take a few weeks to get in a sleeping pattern.
I know, it is weird in many ways. I forgot about it but being back here this north…
Our world is very interesting.
Thank you enjoy your day.

Beautiful mural, especially to recall this dark page in New Zealand's history. I didn't know about the Dawn Raids, it's always good to learn something through StreetArt. Thanks for sharing these pics on The StreetArt Community.

Have a great week
