The GrainCorp Silos at Yelarbon were adorned by Jordache Castillejos and Jordon Bruce of Brightsiders, alongside Steve Falco from
Procreative.
The mural concept, titled ‘When the Rain Comes’, portrays a young boy playing and cooling off in the Yelarbon Lagoon. In his hand, he holds a paper boat, destined to sail across the Yelarbon Lagoon, depicted along and over the shorter six silos.
The paper boat, crafted from historical newspaper remnants discovered in the old Yelarbon Jail, symbolises the region’s rich history
and the innovation required for future progress.
The old Yelarbon Jail, situated within the local caravan park, also exhibits other mementoes from the town’s past.
The project was executed in two stages, commencing in 2018 and concluding in February 2020
