Graffiti Artist Wedding Event – Custom Live Art
This wedding event was all about breaking convention and bringing a bold creative energy to the celebration. Set It Off was invited to create a live graffiti mural during the event as an event mural artist, offering guests a unique visual experience as the artwork evolved in real time.
Painted on a large freestanding panel, the mural combined personal elements chosen by the couple with Set It Off’s signature street art style. Guests were able to watch the piece come to life throughout the night, adding a powerful artistic presence that stood out among the floral arrangements and traditional decor.
The live painting also served as an interactive backdrop and photo moment, drawing guests in and creating lasting memories beyond the ceremony itself. With music, movement, and aerosol in sync, the mural became part of the rhythm of the night.
This project showed how live graffiti can elevate personal events like weddings, delivering a one-of-a-kind experience that feels immersive, artistic, and true to the couple’s identity. At Leonda By The Yarra
Yes, I offer fully customised mural backdrops for conventions, events, exhibitions, and brand activations. Whether you need a live graffiti performance, a pre-painted artwork, or a freestanding display panel, each mural is designed to match your event theme, space, and audience. These custom backdrops are ideal for photo walls, stage visuals, or branded displays, and can be tailored for both indoor and outdoor use.

Yes. I use low-odour aerosol and professional-grade materials suitable for indoor environments. For sensitive or enclosed venues, I also offer water-based spray solutions and can work with venue managers to meet any safety or ventilation requirements.
Absolutely. With live event mural art, I can create the artwork on removable panels or canvas, making it easy for you to keep the piece after the event. Many clients choose to keep the finished mural as a keepsake or reuse it in a permanent location. Artworks can be created on freestanding panels, canvas, or other transportable materials that are easy to move and install post-event.
A standard live graffiti painting setup requires a minimum of 2.5m x 2.5m of clear space. This includes room for the canvas or panel, materials, and a buffer zone for audience interaction or safe viewing. For larger murals, we can discuss custom setup requirements.
I offer live graffiti and live mural painting for a wide range of events including corporate activations, product launches, festivals, weddings, private parties, exhibitions, and council-run community events. Each mural is tailored to suit the audience, venue, and overall event goals.
Engagement Party Background Theme Mural
This engagement event featured a custom mural created as a central backdrop for the couple’s celebration. Set It Off was commissioned to produce a bold, meaningful piece that would serve both as a striking photo wall and a design statement. The mural was carefully planned to reflect the couple’s story, shared symbols, and personal style.
The piece was painted live in the hours leading up to the event, allowing guests to witness the creative process as it unfolded. Using a mix of spray paint, acrylics, and hand-cut stencils, the mural evolved layer by layer, combining soft gradients with graphic details. Every element was tailored to the couple, from the palette to the layout, resulting in a mural that was personal, expressive, and deeply connected to the occasion.
This event mural was more than a background. It became an interactive feature that guests were drawn to throughout the evening. Many stopped to watch, ask questions, or take photos in front of the finished work. Unlike printed graphics or hired props, this live graffiti artwork brought atmosphere and authenticity into the space.
Set It Off collaborated closely with the hosts to ensure the mural aligned with the venue’s styling and the tone of the celebration. The result was a seamless blend of creativity and curation. By the end of the night, the mural had become a signature element of the engagement — something guests talked about, remembered, and shared.
This project is a perfect example of how custom mural artwork and live graffiti can elevate an engagement or any personal event. Whether painted live on-site or prepared in advance, Set It Off creates original, meaningful event murals that reflect the people and stories they are designed to honour.
APAC Forum Street Art Convention
The APAC Forum is Asia Pacific’s premier healthcare conference, hosted by Ko Awatea and attended by global healthcare leaders, innovators, and professionals. For this instalment, Set It Off was invited to deliver a unique live graffiti experience as an event mural artist that would reflect Melbourne’s creative identity and energise the event atmosphere.
Melbourne is internationally recognised for its thriving street art culture. To honour that, we created a custom mural artwork during the convention, designed to showcase the spirit of the city in a format that blended contemporary graffiti with iconic local imagery. The mural featured layered textures, intricate graffiti pattern work, and one of Melbourne’s most beloved cultural symbols — the historic tram.
Painted live on canvas within the forum venue, the mural became a focal point for attendees. Delegates were drawn to the unfolding process, stopping to take photos and speak with the artist. The piece not only enhanced the event visually but also sparked conversations about creativity, place, and identity — themes that resonated deeply with both local and international guests.
This event mural was more than background decoration. It brought energy and authenticity to the forum space, serving as a cultural touchpoint that grounded the global conversation in a distinctly Melbourne setting. The combination of aerosol work, fine line detail, and layered stencil effects gave the piece both movement and richness, allowing it to function as both a standalone artwork and a dynamic live performance.
The mural was well received by organisers and attendees alike, with many praising its impact and originality. By integrating a street art convention theme into a professional healthcare event, Set It Off demonstrated how graffiti and mural art can adapt to a wide range of formats and industries.
This project highlights the power of live graffiti to engage audiences in unexpected settings. Whether at a corporate forum, festival, or cultural gathering, Set It Off delivers bold and meaningful visual work that connects with people and elevates events.
