Monday Mural

 Monday Mural

October 2020 - Toronto ON

Evergreen Brick Works and Friends of Pan Am Path led a project to have murals painted on Bridge 81 concrete pillars on a disused rail bridge.

THE PULL OF THE LAND, TORONTO, 2013 by faith47 XLVII

Liberty Du, who is widely recognized as Faith XLVII, is a South African Multi-Disciplinary Artist.

Her journey into art began on the streets of South Africa in 1979, as a young graffiti writer taking on the name Faith47 (the number being a reference to her grandmothers numerological theorem). In 2006, Liberty began on a nomadic journey which has brought her to create works in 39 countries and, in 2017, saw her relocating to Los Angeles, USA.






Japanese artist Hiroyasu Tsuri has done that a massive mural below the historic rail bridge featuring a large snake and plants native to the area.




I can't find any information on this mural.



Some other murals in the area.

    I love the one with the flowers, birds and bees, but the top one from Liberty Du is just stunning. She is a great artist, the animals are just so real. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Jackie.
