Add to My List Check Off

Travel the 200-kilometre Silo Art Trail through Victoria's wheatbelt towns of Sheep Hills, Brim, Rosebury, Lascelles, Patchwollock and Rupanyup. It should take a little over two hours. Rupanyup Silo Art: Monochrome mural created by Russian artist Julia Volchkova on the huge metal grain storage silos. The work vividly captures the spirit of community and provides an accurate insight into rural youth culture. Sheep Hills Silo Art: International artist Adnate painted the Sheep Hills Silo mural as a dedication to Indigenous culture. Brim Silo Art: Guido van Helten’s iconic Brim mural was the first silo artwork to appear in Victoria. After gaining widespread local and international attention, Brim’s silo art success shone a spotlight on the Wimmera Mallee region and inspired the establishment of the Silo Art Trail. Rosebery Silo Art: Painted by Kaff eine. Farming woman with a sheep and stockman with a horse. Lascelles Silo Art: Melbourne-based artist, Rone, depicts local farming couple Geoff and Merrilyn Horman, part of a family that has lived and farmed in the area for four generations. Patchewollock Silo Art: Street artist Fintan Magee started painting the Patchewollock silo during the fourth annual Patchewollock Music Festival. He previously booked a room at the local pub to get to know the community. When he met local sheep and grain farmer, Nick “Noodle” Hulland, Magee knew he had found his muse. Once you’re in the Wimmera Mallee, the approximate drive time from one silo to the next is as follows: Rupanyup to Sheep Hills: 25 minutes Sheep Hills to Brim: 25 minutes Brim to Rosebery: 20 minutes Rosebery to Lascelles: 25 minutes Lascelles to Patchewollock: 35 minutes
