Annerley’s View Street Brightens Up with Daniel Brook’s Ice-Cream Dreams Artwork

Daniel Brook enlivens Annerley’s View Street as his Ice-cream dreams (2018) artwork gets chosen as one of the winners of the Council’s Brisbane Canvas project.

Brisbane Canvas 2018 presents a rich range of contemporary and creative commissioned street art on several walls, pillars, and bridges at different sites across Brisbane.

Brisbane Canvas celebrates the city’s creative scene with commissioned street arts that embodies this year’s theme which is “Optimism”. During the expression of interest phase in December 2017, artists were asked to choose one of 14 potential sites and submit a concept design that reflects the theme.

From more than 180 art submissions, eight successful artists were chosen on January 2018 to display their artworks at the streets of Brisbane.
