Tom Civil’s work can be found in many tucked away nooks of the city.

His stencil and street work has been featured in various publications including Melbourne Stencil Art Capital, Street|Studio, Space Invaders (NGA), the Film Rash, as a feature artist in the Melbourne Stencil Festival 2004/05/09 and the Cans Festival in London in 2008.

He has also exhibited walk-through installations and worked closely with his brother Ned, who died from
cancer in late 2010, under the guise The Evil Brothers.

Tom has given workshops and talks in different communities about murals and the political nature of street art, and is interested in how street art and graffiti create community, mark space and act as a human-scaled anarchic form of urban architecture. He is also the co-founder of small Melbourne-based radical publishers Breakdown Press.
