The Broken Wall by Australian artist Fintan Magee @fintan_magee assisted by Scottish artist Mary Butterworth at Jopps Lane, Aberdeen, Scotland in April 2017 as part of @nuartaberdeen festival. Photos taken April 2025.

"In 2008 the Scottish government approved a Donald Trump golf course in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The development has been a disaster, destroying hundreds of acres of sand dunes and pristine coastland while forcing locals off their land and only delivering 98 of the 6000 jobs Trump promised to the local economy. Trump also ended up in a public battle with a number of the local farmers who refused to sell their land. Claiming that the homes were 'slum like' and they would spoil the view from his hotel he regularly cut off their water and electricity and eventually built a wall and row trees beside their homes, blocking their views. People in Aberdeen now fly Mexican flags around the golf course to protest trump and his actions.
This mural painted in the Aberdeen city center depicts three locals standing on top of a broken wall. Painted in the context of the Trump presidency, brexit and the rise of Le Pen and other far right figures in Europe this piece acts as a protest against Trumpism and those who wish to build walls and divide us." @fintan_magee April 25, 2017

"Every wall that I'm offered I do a Google Street View walk around the area to try and see the building from every angle to see the sort of colors there are there." 2024 video interview (3m21s) https://youtu.be/TAtvfkfnXKQ?si=wpR-uZOZavKll6Xl
⠀⠀⠀
"It wasn't until I started painting six or seven days a week that I saw my capabilities become a lot greater. .... Without painting as much as I did, I wouldn't be able to do what I'm trying to achieve right now. I guess my biggest advice would be to paint as much as you can. Don't get caught up on this social media thing. Just ignore that stuff. Just have fun with it, but work harder."

Alex and Carmelita by Australian artist Lisa King @artoflisaking at 49 Walton Street, Whangārei 0110, New Zealand in October 2019 for Street Prints Manaia, International Art Festival @street_prints. Photos taken February 2025. Thanks to @streetartcities app for leading me to Whangārei.

'In January 2019, some of the worlds best street artists transformed some grey city walls into colourful masterpieces as part of the Street Prints Manaia, International Art Festival. 15 incredible murals based on the theme “Tui ate muka Tangata – Weaving the Thread of Humanity”.

This artwork was created by Lisa King from Adelaide, Australia. A photo of "Aunty Carm" can be seen clutched in Alex's hands at the bottom of the painting.

Lisa described her mural: "The brief for this festival was 'Weaving the Threads of Humanity'. The response was to build a portrait of my partner, Jarrad Jackson's father Alex Herewane who has strong Maori blood but also houses indigenous Australian roots. Thus, the perfect human for the weaving of the threads and the interconnection of the people of the lands, both Polynesian and Indigenous Australian together in unity as one.

"Alex's very proud Maori sister 'Aunty Carm' passed away unexpectedly three months ago and so it felt right to build a piece where I could bring a little bit of her back to the Homelands. This one's for you beautiful Herewanes."' @streetartcities
