ST KILDA FESTIVAL TRAM PROJECT
February 9, 2007 - February 12, 2007
No.16 Tram, hourly: Kew/Cotham Road to Melbourne Uni via St Kilda Route
Throughout February 2007
In December 2006 Citylights was commissioned by Foxtel to curate and coordinate a new art tram to celebrate the return of the St Kilda Festival. Over three days in mid January 2007 six artists collaborated on this massive artwork, painting onto large panels of vinyl sticker medium that were then applied to the tram.
Curator Andy Mac selected a mixture of emerging and established Melbourne street artists - Phibs, Deb Nails, and HaHa, complimented by visiting Swiss duo Pascale Mira Tschäni & Michael Husmann Tschäni. The tramtravelled hourly on the No.16 route: Kew/Cotham Road to Melbourne Uni via St Kilda, St Kilda Road and Swanston Street.
