Picola Silo Art

The Picola Silo features a magnificent depiction of the Superb Parrot, on a backdrop of the nearby Barmah National Park and some of the native flora and fauna found in the region. It was painted by Melbourne-based artist Jimmy D'Vate, whose work is also featured on the Goorambat Silos. In bygone days, Picola was known as 'the hook' because it was at the end of the railway line. Paying homage to this history, D'Vate has hidden a hook in this painting. See if you can find it. These silos are fully operational and are on private property. They can be easily seen and photographed from the road.
