This year’s biggest
project has been working on the Church Road Mural.
Zoe Power and I were commissioned by Bristol City Council to design and paint a
community mural on the wall of St George Liberal Club.
It’s bold and colourful and celebrates the history and diversity of the Redfield
neighbourhood.
I led print based workshops with
school children, young people and vulnerable adults where they helped design
motifs, which were then incorporated into the mural design.
The
chosen design is a patchwork of individual segments representing different
elements of the local community. The mural includes swans and herons to
represent St George Park and trams to represent the history of Church Road, as
well as musical images to reflect local festival Redfest.
We’re
chuffed with the great response’s we’ve had so far.
So
get in touch if you want to show your wall some LOVE and treat it to a colourful bespoke design. (Email: sophie@sophie-rae.com
