If you live in Melbourne and you’re unfamiliar with the Everfresh crew, then it’s possible you’re an impostor and are not from Melbourne after all (wat?). The local collective – comprised of artists, Makatron, Meggs, Phibs, Prizm, Reka, Rone, Sync, The Tooth, and Wonderlust – have been shaping the urban landscape since 2003, and are responsible for some of the city’s most revered public art displays. In fact, you know how people say that in London, you’re never more than nine-feet from a rat? Well, in Melbourne, you’re never more than nine-feet from an Everfresh piece.
This month, the group will be launching their highly anticipated Blackbook (deets below!), comprised of an extensive archive of photos, stories and artworks. Hardback editions are available for $80AUD, and are hand-signed and limited to 500 copies. For more information, or to place a pre-order, check out the official Everfresh website.
