Sydney artist gets cast in the Outcast

Sydney street artist James Jirat Patradoon will create a mural celebrating the release of the highly anticipated comic-book adaptation, Outcast.

The mural's creation will be live over four days in honour of the new FX TV series.

Created by The Walking Dead showrunner Robert Kirkman, Outcast follows a man on his search for understanding in the underworld of demonic posession that has plagued his family for years. Adapted from the comic of which Kirkman also wrote, the ten-episode series is already slated for a second season, ahead of its premiere this June.

Patradoon will create the mural live in Sydney from 27 - 30 May, with the public able to view the culminations of Patradoon's efforts over the four consecutive days.
