INTERVIEW: The 'Aussie' poster guy on his decade-long street art project
About this episode
Peter Drew discusses his decade-long 'Aussie' poster project and its impact on Australian identity.
It's been 10 years since Peter Drew started his 'Aussie' poster campaign. It features screen-printed old pictures of racially and ethnically diverse people, and questions what it really means to be Australian. But where did the idea come from? And why is he still committed to it? In this week's long listen, Peter explains why he kick-started the project, what it's like being compared to Banksy, and when he'll put up his last poster.Guests: Peter Drew, street artist Get the whole story from hack: Follow us on Instagram and TikTok Subscribe to the hack podcast Listen on the triple j app or on your radio live every weeknight at 5:30pm
