Title: Proudly Together
Size: 30' x 40'
For: The City of Mississauga
Where: Mississauga, Ontario
Medium: Latex & Spray
Year: 2021
"Proudly together is a public art installation, created in collaboration with staff from Mavis Work Yard and Traffic Management and Municipal Parking. The mural references the different tasks, services, history, and work that goes on in the Yard.
Given the widespread importance of the Yard, the staff that work there, and the energy, that goes into keeping Mississauga running smoothly, it was important to harness the vibrancy of these stories while illustrating the work in colour and movement. The mural is both exciting and energizing, informationally rich yet leaves the viewer curious about what other work goes on in the Yard. This mural showcases a glimpse of the hardworking staff, efforts, and initiatives it takes to keep the City of Mississauga safe, accessible and moving!"
