My Growing Wild mural was unveiled in downtown Cobourg on Saturday November 12th!
Julian and I are stoked to finally announce the new home of our “Growing Wild” mural/AR collab: 1 King Street East Cobourg, Ontario. It feels amazing to see this piece live on and contribute to the beautification of Cobourg.

FROM THE INFO PANEL:
GROWING WILD
(Maui + Chicago + Jasper National Park + Kootenay National Park)
Mural + augmented reality collaboration, 2022
Acrylic on aluminum composite panel
Become immersed in an environment where urban and wild environments collide in search of growth. The artists combine melting glaciers, burnt trees and flooded streets to ask pressing questions about our future. How will we adapt and grow in the face of rising temperatures and water levels? What is truly at stake as our climate changes--the planet or humanity?
