Highlight of the Year: Toronto Underpass Mural

The highlight of 2020 for me was taking on my largest project yet, a massive underpass project in Leslieville, Toronto. This one involved 3 different murals, totalling over 6000 square feet. Each mural focussed on a different theme relating to water, connection, and the history of East Toronto.

The parkette wall offered a chance share the space and collaborate with some Toronto graffiti writers. This aspect was a great way to build connections and involve some local talent, it truly made this experience unique.

This project was made possible by StreetARToronto. Also, a huge thanks to my team, artists Dom Laporte and Victoria Day, for helping me get this massive undertaking done in exactly 15 days.

Check out this video by the talented Cory Conty documenting the process and the story behind these murals.
