Australian War Memorial - Indigenous Australian servicemen

Black Anzacs mural A street artist has pasted a mural of Indigenous soldiers from World War I on a wall opposite Anzac park at Meningie, south of Adelaide.

Sydney-based artist Hego said the 15-metre-long work was made up of 99 paper panels.

"The mural was installed with a technique known as wheat pasting, using simply paper and glue," the artist explained.

The artwork shows 18 servicemen of World War I who came from the region, which is Tanganikald country.

"Direct descendants of each of the Aboriginal soldiers gave permission to include their relatives' image in the mural," Hego said.

Locals said the mural was a welcome addition to the town and would impress visitors as they passed it along Meningie's main street.
