A silo in Brunswick will feature a large mural of New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern hugging a woman in the aftermath of the Christchurch mosque shootings.

More than $11,000 was crowdfunded in just over a day for a street artist to paint the Tinning Street silos with a photo of the leader wearing a hijab and the Arabic word for peace written underneath.

The mural was orchestrated by the architecture firm behind the sustainable Nightingale apartment projects.

In March, the same image was projected on to the world's tallest building in the United Arab Emirates as Ardern was praised for her response to New Zealand's worst massacre, which claimed the lives of 50 people.
