ANCIENT UNDERWATER MURAL

The Geopark recently contracted a group of local artists to brighten up a roadside barrier in Chelmer St Oamaru.  Behind the barrier is a Geosite called the Oamaru Limestone Dikes – volcanic tuff crosscut by limestone.  The mural is an artistic impression of what the Oamaru area may have looked like when the rocks at this Geosite where formed - around 35 million years ago when the area was under the sea.  


“We hope this mural will create interest about the geological history of the area – and what amazing creatures lived here” – WWG Geoeducator

We are currently planning an interpretation panel about the mural and the Geosite – to be installed opposite the mural, in the Oamaru Public Gardens.  


This project has been made possible by the generous contributions from:

Colin Jones Trust

Creative Communities Fund

Oamaru Top 10

Awamoa Bins and Skips

Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony

Waitaki District Council


And, of course, a massive thank you to artists Wicksey, Philina Den Dulk, Luzette Crossan, Al Bell for their beautiful work!

That ancient underwater mural sounds absolutely fascinating! It’s amazing how art can survive beneath the waves for centuries, holding stories of lost civilizations and forgotten cultures.

Speaking of uncovering mysteries, I recently had to research something similar for a project and thought, “I wish someone could write my assignment for me.” Finding reliable information on historical artifacts can be such a challenge! Still, discoveries like these murals remind us how powerful history and art are in connecting humanity across time.
