Illuminart & Port Adelaide Enfield Council
Architectural Projection
Harts Mill, Mundy Street, Port Adelaide
23 August 2014
Night Mural is a transformative project led by illuminart mentors. Reaching out to local artists, the mentors provide a pathway for the artists to develop understanding and skills in communication with light; a powerful yet ephemeral medium. Translating their visual art into concepts for luminous, moving image murals takes 6-8 weeks, and at the end it is presented in a community event.
Night Mural 2014 was held at Harts Mill in Port Adelaide SA, not too far from the venue for Night Mural 2013.
This one night show transformed an ordinary building into an extraordinary creation of colour and light, as it experienced a number of temporary “makeovers” by the participating artists.
The mural artwork was created by young artists from the Port Adelaide Enfield area, in professional menteeship and training with the illuminart team. Each of these wonderful murals was brought to life by animation and music, ensuring the audience would never see this building in the same way again!

WOW - what a creative event for the community to enjoy! As a ‘first timer’ at seeing projection art live, I waited for the shadows to creep over the Hart’s Mill and the sun to sink with great anticipation of what was to come. I came away from the event feeling both immensely proud as a parent of one of the young artists and also humbled by your confidence, warmth and collaborative support in nurturing all the young artists and their wonderful artwork.
