Masai's #LondonLovesCorals SynchronicityEarth Mural

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Street artist Louis Masai, who is known for creating murals for endanged species and animals in general, painted a large wall on Redchurch Street in Shoreditch this summer. The piece was created in conjunction with Synchronicity Earth to highlight to coral reefs and the diversity of plants and animals that live in them. The project also had another engaging dimension with Masai asking on social media about which animals should be painted.

The mural took shape over several days where Masai would add a couple of new animals and plants each day. Those passing by could see the work take shape and see the artist at work. I did not get any photographs of the work in progress, but the photographs below show the finished mural.
