Equivalent to 90 stories in length, the artwork titled “9 til 5” spans 96,875 square feet (9,000 square meters) of waterfront ground space.

One hundred eighty-five gallons (700 liters) of TAUBMANS All Weather exterior paint by PPG were used to create the largest mural in the Southern Hemisphere. Equivalent to 90 stories in length, the artwork titled “9 til 5” – designed by Kitt Bennett – spans 96,875 square feet (9,000 square meters) of waterfront ground space at the Independent Cement and Lime site in Port Melbourne, Australia. “9 til 5” depicts the caricature of a businessman tumbling backward through a series of 10 individual figures painted side by side. Each figure measures 98 feet (30 meters) in length. The mural, which is animated using aerial photography, is best viewed from above with satellite technology. “This is a passion project,” Bennett said. “It has allowed me to combine an old love of animation with my more recent interest in large-scale ground murals. It has been a really special experience creating this mural. “Projects like this that are entirely self-funded and independently produced rely heavily on the generosity and support of others to bring them to life. PPG’s sponsorship through the donation of 700 liters of Taubmans All Weather exterior paint was a major factor in getting it off the ground.” “This makes it a perfect fit with the Taubmans paint brand and an ideal opportunity to promote innovative Australian street art that benefits the community,” added David Nicholls, PPG commercial director, architectural coatings, Australia and New Zealand. “PPG is proud to get behind Aussie artists by supporting projects like ‘9 til 5’ that push the boundaries, challenge traditional perceptions and bring new life to dull streetscapes. We have long supported public art projects by donating our premium Taubmans All Weather exterior paint by PPG to create impactful and enduring art on unconventional surfaces, and we will continue to do so as part of our mission to protect and beautify the world.”
