I think this would be a good mural for Christmas - UNITY
Painted in May 2023, by artist Nick Zafir with the collaboration of community members of different cultural backgrounds, it can be seen on the walls of the Hillview Community Centre in the suburb of St James, city of Canning.
This mural celebrates the difference, diverse backgrounds and intercultural connections between the communities living in the area served by the Community Centre, with collages with patters from various cultures. Within the word UNITY there are embedded translations of the word unity in different languages.
One of the most prominent members of this community, Judy, who is also a driving force behind the Community Centre, leading various projects like "People helping people" - cooking lunch every Friday for whoever shows up; distributing food parcels to the more vulnerable; etc, was a bit disappointed that her beloved dog Piper (who recently died) was not portrayed in the mural, as he was a fixture at the Community Centre and known to many in the area.
This will be my last mural for the year 2023, as Monday 25th is Christmas Day and Monday 1st January is New Year's day.
We will also be away from the 27th to the 2nd January for a short break in our camper van.
Thanks to all that participate in Monday Murals, it's very much appreciated, we all love to see the wonderful murals from around the world.
I wish all my readers and blogging friends a most wonderful Christmas and may the New Year bring you health, happiness and peace.
Your mural here has a nice theme for the coming new year! I hope you enjoy your holidays. My submission today is part of a general reading project about Paris, so my mural isn’t my own original photo, but part of my search for connection with a book I was reading.
ReplyDeleteHave a great holiday and Happy New Year to you and all the lovers of street art!
best, mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Thank you Mae :)
Delete...Unity is a fabulous title for the mural, something that the world needs now. Thanks Sami for hosting and I wish you a wonderful Christmas week.
ReplyDeleteThe world truly needs some unity. I took these photos a few months ago shortly after the mural was painted, and thought it would be a good mural for Christmas. Thanks Tom

DeleteDear Sami, this is a great wall picture and above all a wonderful message behind it. It's a shame that the dog Piper wasn't depicted - but I see that there is still plenty of space on the wall - perhaps there can be an initiative to add the portrait of the dog in order to create a memorial to him?
ReplyDeleteMy mural today - like the one from the previous post - is actually a classic indoor wall painting: This time it is a frieze by Gustav Klimt on several walls in the Vienna Secession.
I wish you a pleasant break from blogging, a wonderful Christmas and a great start into the New Year!
All the best and have a good time!
