Overview

  • Step into a city that turned its deepest scars into a world-renowned open-air gallery. Following the devastating 2011 earthquakes, Christchurch didn't just rebuild its infrastructure; it painted its pain, its defiance, and its future across the shattered walls of the city. Join Clara, an art historian and design expert, and Antonio, a local resident, as they decode the monumental murals, hidden laneway tags, and transitional spaces that defined a decade of recovery. This isn't just a street art tour; it's a psychological map of a community reclaiming its home.
