These mysterious plaques by Invisible Man have been appearing around town, but then we saw this.

Bizarrely, and despite mangling the URL, the person making these plaques has started name checking this blog.

I saw an almost destroyed memorial to “AC/DC Tour Manager, Kit” near the corner of Ryder Street and Taggarts Lane, Surry Hills, across the road from the Hope Street Mission.

The Invisible Man is back.

On Taggarts Lane, I noticed a hint of a pink triangle.

It was the same tribute.

Art by the Invisible Man, ‘09

Each of the Invisible Man’s triangle plaques are different from those before. But the writing seems distinctive, and it seems unlikely to be a copycat.

An odd memorial appeared on Kells Lane, Darlinghurst, two months ago. It was a pink upside-down triangle, attributed to The Invisible Man, that said ‘Remembering “Lani”‘ in big letters.

Another Invisible Man plaque appeared this week on Taggarts Lane, Surry Hills, near the Hope Street Mission.

This time, the words are inscribed on a red inverted triangle.

In the comments for the Kells Lane memorial, Phil said there are a couple of similar plaques on Gibbons Street in the Alexandria/Redfern area.

They’re near Redfern station and are references to the gay-hate murders of Bill Allen and Richard Johnson in the late 80s in the vicinity of Alexandria Park.

They say:
William Allen 50 Unsolved 29-12-88 Invisible Man ‘09
Richard N. Johnson 33 15/1/90 Invisible Man Plaque ‘09

Both are written on inverted pink triangles with black lettering.

It’s a mystery. Is it memorial, advocacy, awareness raising, art?
