“Bring light into Dark” a community arts project with @gorgeousgorsehill and @righttothestreets_ 🦆 In the build up to the Gorgeous Gorse Hill Lantern Parade I worked with Gorse Hill Scouts and Beavers groups to create a mural full of fun characters based on the local wildlife of Old Trafford 🦉🦇🦆🐞⚽️ The 8 bollards were transformed from black graffiti’d and stickered up to fun and colourful full of children’s designs to brighten up the local area next to Manchester United’s Football Stadium. We received SO MANY compliments from residents, locals and people who use the road for commuting it was so wonderful! ✨ I wish I filmed some of the interactions because it really was so wholesome 🌈 Thank you to my amazing helpers who braved the heat to bash this mural out in 3 days and be varnished before it had a chance to be vandalised High fives to: @alenaruthtufting @theplayfulindian @ladyandthehouseplants @kelly_ma_ Really couldn’t have done it without you all! 💖 And not forgetting the brilliant @cazdidit for the opportunity! 💖 (Ladybird is a small nod to fellow street artist @thehammo 🐞) #communityarts #communityartproject #gorgeousgorsehill #gorsehill #oldtrafford #mural #muralartist #scouts #beavers #lanternparade #salfordarts #childrensart #manchesterartist
