Painted by world-renowned artist Adnate as part of the Benalla Street Art Festival, Sophia was commissioned to reflect the church's values of faith, community and inclusion.
Representing the feminine spirit of God, Sophia draws from ancient biblical tradition, symbolising wisdom, strength, and grace. Her presence is both timeless and deeply moving, a powerful image of divine femininity rarely depicted in sacred art.
Adnate's signature style brings her to life with stunning realism and reverence, blending contemporary street art with spiritual storytelling. The result is more than a mural, it's a contemplative experience that invites stillness, reflection and awe.
Set within a quaint country church still used for worship, Sophia is a highlight of North East Victoria's silo and Benalla street art trail. Whether you are an art lover, a spiritual seeker or simply curious, this hidden gem will leave a lasting impression.
