All of the 12 Murals are 10' X 10' and the DIBOND canvases were installed onto 4 'cubic' 3 sided structures. In preparation for showing them here, one of the 3 sides for each piece was selected arbitrarily as an anchor piece, e.g. A1. The other two pieces on this 3 sided cube A2 and A3 are then encountered travelling clockwise around the cube. The lineup of pieces is as follows:
A1- Jonato Dalayoan
A2- Jeannie White Bird
A3- Kevin Celestino
B1- Franklin Fernando
B2- Cheney Lansard
B3- Michel St. Hilaire
C1- Nereo Zorro
C2- Stormy Angeconeb
C3- Mike Valcourt
D1- Jessica Canard
D2- Xavier Mutshipayi
D3- Kal Barteski
The general theme of this exhibit was RENEW. A special public gathering to celebrate the finished pieces was held on September 15, 2022. Within 1 week following this, the site was disassembled and the 12 pieces were placed into safe storage until available walls for each Mural are found in the West End in 2023.
