IDEAS TO INSPIRE YOU
WINGS TO FLY AND THE LOVE SEAT
Arguably two of the most recognisable street art works in Tauranga, Wings to Fly and Love Seat have been photo-op hot-spots since they were created in 2015 and 2017 by artists Millie Newitt and Tara Fowler. These love notes to Tauranga add a bright pop of colour at the beginning of the Strand and in Masonic Park inviting viewers to engage with the artworks by standing in between the wings for a unique photo or sitting on the love seat for cupid to shoot her arrow down at them. We challenge you to create a mural in the Grey Street laneway which will become just as popular and recognisable!
