I went for a little drive to Bowden this morning with the help of the Adelaide made streetart.io iPhone app.
I actually found one collection of street art by accident while trying to find a particular piece.
The 'Village of Bowden' was established in 1839 by James Hurtle Fisher, who named it after his native village in Northamptonshire.
There are a lot of industrial estates in the suburb along with a number of vacant houses.
It's a little sad really... parts of the place have a decidedly unloved feel about it.
Anything that's not new and utilitarian feels old, broken and rusted.
Fortunately there are some fantastic pockets of street art that brighten the place up.
And just occasionally, you find something a little special amongst the detritus.
