Monday Murals – 30th Street Underpass Mural – Part 1

Posted on August 1, 2022 by Mama Cormier

….this 500 ft. mural is so large and complex…I’ve divided it into four parts

Excerpt from marlapasquin.ca: The client, Nick Sweetman, is a multidisciplinary artist who has worked with muralists and First Nations historian Phil Cote to design a mural to imbue the indigenous oral traditions of storytelling and traditional spiritual perspectives. The 500 ft nature-themed mural celebrates the plants and animals whose natural habitat is the Toronto shoreline.

That’s really excellent work! Thanks for sharing it, especially as it must have been hard to get photos in that setting?

I agree with everyone here. What I love beyond the colors is the softness of the paintings. They feel like friends.

    I’m not very artistic so I don’t know the correct terms to describe things. The murals have a child-like quality about them.
