MyShawlands had the ambitious plan to bring graffiti artists, illustrators, ceramicists, sculptors and designers from around the local area to add art and colour to the blank spaces of Shawlands.
These Projects range from small street level pieces up to large gable ends, all done with cooperation from building owners, tenants, Glasgow City Council. We were asked to film the initial stage which would feature 11 artists working on 11 different murals around the area.
Throughout the weekend we were on hand to capture the murals being painted. From the very initial outlines to the amazing and colourful finished pieces. We also interviewed some of the artists and asked them if they would provide some information about themselves and the mural they were painting.
The artists who feature in the video include Molly Hankinson, Little Book Transfers, Boss City Taio, Bmore Sketchy, Mack Colours, Pizza Boy, Barry The Cat, Sapien82, Lightbody107, Jenny Booth, Jennie Bates, Cocozzaesthetic and Chelsea Frew.
If you are ever in the area make sure to come and see the trail for yourself, it is really quite something special.
