Art lovers fund giant mural to lift town’s spirits
Mr Robottom explained, however, that the festival and Brink Community Arts depended on private donations.
“With the help of funding from Art Friends Warwickshire we can expand the Leamington Mural Festival Street Art Trail and bring art appreciation and creativity further into the community,” he said.
The artworks, created by Llanelli-based street artist Steve ‘Jenks’ Jenkins, are part of Carmarthenshire County Council’s Ten Towns Project.
This project provides funding to support the economic recovery and growth of rural towns across the county.
The Cross Hands piece is located on the side of the Squires and Lane Hair Academy and Salon.
San Shyn, a young street artist from Saudi Arabia, has revealed a new, 80 foot public art mural outside the Saudi Embassy in the heart of Mayfair, London. The project has been realised as part of a KSA-UK cross-cultural collaboration, with the piece being installed by London-based graffiti artist, Cept, one of the UK’s most highly respected and pioneering graffiti artists. Promoted by Edge Of Arabia, the collaboration developed organically through word of mouth within the grassroots street art community. The work demonstrates an artistic exchange at the intersection of two cultures and explores their commonalities.
