The creation and artist behind Miss Mi’s Mural, Drew Straker

The Miss Mi Perth team had put out a call to Perth’s best street artists, inviting them to help liven up a very large and very white wall at the entrance to the restaurant.

Out of the many talented artists, the dazzling neon portfolio from muralist and artist Drew Straker of Mastermind Murals had them really excited. Briefed to bring to life both Miss Mi Perth’s traditional Asian roots and distinctly Western Australian home, Drew got to work.

Inspired by a traditional Chinese streetscape dotted with red lanterns alongside a nod to WA, this highly detailed painting draws eyes to the sky with flying Chinese kites. Fast becoming a ‘gram-worthy’ spot for Miss Mi diners, Drew’s masterpiece now comes to life at night, lighting the way to the restaurant’s doors from bustling Murray Street.
