Description |
The Eternity Man tells the story of one of Sydney's most intriguing characters, Arthur Stace, a reformed alcoholic and visionary who combed Sydney for 37 years writing the word 'Eternity' on pavements and other surfaces in chalk. Stace had a special mission which was to remind us that our time on earth is limited and that we should be looking beyond the everyday towards eternity. |
