Murals in the Community
Phoenix Green Mural Project
This was a participatory mural project working with young people to design and paint a pedestrian bridge in their town centre of Coalville, Leicestershire.
"Mantle has recently worked with Kirsty Whitrow (together with her colleague, Paul Barrand) on two mural projects for disadvantaged young people. We were hugely impressed by their approach to the projects and by the quality of their work. Throughout their initial efforts to engage the young people, the process of designing the murals through a series of workshops and the actual painting of the murals with the participants, their ability to enthuse and encourage a diverse group of young people was exemplary and the quality of the finished product was excellent and greatly admired by everyone. They also have the distinct advantage of being a great pleasure to work with."
