Kimba Grain Silos
In 2017 Melbourne artist Cam Scale spent 26 days and 200 litres of paint creating the artwork on the grain silos. The mural is 25 metres tall and 60 metres wide.
The artwork, depicting a young child in a wheat field at sunset, has turned the silos into an attraction for passing motorists. There is a viewing platform on Railway Terrace.
Access to the silos is restricted as they are a fully operational receival site. Check out http://www.kimba.sa.gov.au/tourism for more information.
