New Mural at Sidney Street, Whitechapel.

Mockup of Mural

The opportunity to make a large external mural for a wall 10 metres high by 7 metres wide, in a central area of east London, is exciting and challenging. I was asked to do the mural on the basis of the draft design below, and this design will be influenced by workshopping the project with local schools and local community groups. I have been superbly supported by the John’s Place Tenants and Residents Association and Walk East. There is a website dedicated to the project- ‘Whitechapel Stories’, and a second website ‘Walk East’. which give you more information about the key people leading the project: Whitechapel Stories Walk East.
