Peter Burke's Shellywood features on the billboard, at the Creative Industries Precinct

A little bit of Bollywood


Bollywood comes to Brisbane with the unveiling of the latest billboard at the Creative Industries Precinct.

An extravagant celebration of Eastern pop-culture, Australia’s largest billboard could be mistaken for the large, iconic hand-painted billboards of India, in its newest incarnation titled Shellywood

Shellywood artist Peter Burke’s fictional alter-ego Shelly Innocence stars as a Bollywood movie maiden promoting her latest blockbuster movie.

 

Shellywood forms part of Burke’s Innocence series (2004-2007), which has appeared across the globe; from Melbourne’s Federation Square and Flinders Station (Innocence and Public Happiness Meter) to India’s Bodhgaya (Enlightenment) and New Delhi (Planet Shellywood).
