Painted in 2019 by Lyn Hovey, with the assistance of David Stangways and Christine Stuart, the tank is a captivating addition to the Australian Silo Art Trail Collection. This remarkable structure stands as one of the most remote art installations in the collection, nestled in the heart of South Australia near the iconic Lake Eyre. Marree itself is a small yet historically significant town, strategically positioned at the junction of The Outback Highway and the Birdsville Track, making it a notable waypoint for travellers

venturing into the Australian

outback.


The vibrant mural portrays a depiction of the region’s unique wildlife, featuring majestic wild Brumbies, resilient camels, and bounding kangaroos.
