Peatr Thomas: "The Mural spells out LOVE, and is intertwined with the Inninew
Syllabics for the word love. It was commissioned by Broadway Neighbourhood
Centre."
.
"Being a Skateboarder of 20 years, I observed nothing but true love/passion for sport.
Injury, high level of difficultly to learn, and discipline are inevitable, so there must be a
real love to want to continue skateboarding. This is why I chose this word for the
skatepark. The syllabics have no phonetic translation, to spark conversation on the
meaning of the symbols. At the same time a push to revitalize the Inninew language. "
