About the Mural
This mural has been created at part of the Right to the Streets project focussing on how we can make the streets and public spaces more welcoming and safer for women and girls and all residents. We have held workshops with groups of women, girls and local residents at the studio and the mural location to gather ideas and thoughts to contribute to the design.
The fox, serving as a symbolic representation, embodies a creature capable of navigating urban environments with both grace and self-assurance and without trepidation. Urban foxes exude confidence, exemplifying empowerment within our streets and urban landscapes. The botanical arrangement will stand as a reflection of the multifaceted diversity within the community, representative of its strength, harmony and unity.
“The mural really lifts the area, it makes it feel more family, more of a community”
Rosh, local resident
