Description: This monumental 32-storey mural - one of the tallest in the world - depicts a phoenix rising from the ashes and wrapping around the building to pay tribute to a previous fire in the building and promote a feeling of soaring and positivity.
...a BIG TALL WOW!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Tom, wow!! Fabulous tribute Jackie.
ReplyDeleteLove the art - it makes passing the building so pleasant! #MMBC
ReplyDeleteWow! That is beautiful! It really brightens up the town!
ReplyDeleteFor Harry Potter fans the phoenix has a much bigger significance than in the rest of mythology. Dumbledore’s familiar animal is the phoenix Fawkes (as virtually everyone knows) and Fawkes appears at very significant times throughout the series, both books & films. So this is a doubly wonderful mural.
