Outcome: Fieldey decided to fill the large three-section wall with a story about Frida Kahlo. Basing it on Frida's famous piece "Las Dos Fridas", she painted a large portrait of Frida in the main room. Frida is holding a heart that has a blood vessel that winds along the wall into the next room which features Diego Rivera, in toad form, holding an identical linked heart. The third wall features a mariachi skeleton holding a bottle of El Jimador Tequila. All the colours are based on traditional Mexican painting styles and the finished murals became iconic in Perth. |
