WRITERS BENCH: The Evolution of Melbourne's Graffiti & Street Art Culture. 1980-2011.

Writers Bench is a documentary that explores the historical relevance of the graffiti and street art scene in Melbourne to the world. From its raw beginnings as political and radical slogans on walls throughout the suburbs, to its colourful burst of murals splashed along the train lines of the urban landscape, to its rise as an inner city tourist attraction and birth of urban street art.
