Murals

Bollo Brook Park

.

In August 2021 Georgia was nominated for a project grant and given the commercial opportunity to create an outdoor mural in Bollo Brook Park, London. The project was funded by Central St Martins (UAL) in collaboration with the associate organisations MyMural and Artification. 

As her first major mural project Georgia was grateful to receive the opportunity and financial support enabling her to explore a new avenue within her creative practice. 

The mural was designed and created as an immersive part of the location in which it is situated, reflecting the newly transformed and vibrant landscape of Bollo Brook Park. Georgia’s initial idea for the mural centred around a fusion of nature and childlike magic, complimenting the green and open space in which the mural would be situated. This design was selected and promoted by the children of Berrymede Junior School and members of the community through a public vote. 

Public engagement has been a key focus of this project. Georgia wanted the positive impact of the mural to reach beyond its visual presence long-term, and for the work to exist as part of the local narrative of South Acton. With this in mind she actively sought to involve members of the Acton Gardens Community Centre in the creation of the mural. In collaboration with Artification she gave a selection of young adults and teenagers a fully-paid opportunity to assist in painting the mural. This was an enlightening and well-received experience for all involved. Georgia shared her technical knowledge as a muralist, and learnt in return a wealth of information surrounding the historical and contemporary community of Acton.

Georgia also ran a pop-up mural workshop in collaboration with Berrymede Junior School and Artification, teaching school children how to use stencils and safely work with spray paints.

Communi-T in The Park

In September 2022 Georgia contributed her design to a new mural trail in Glasgow’s southside. She painted the mural as part of a two-day spray painting workshop aimed at children and adults in Elder Park, Govan. The event was organised and funded by Yardworks at SWG3.

In June 2023 Georgia installed a mural in collaboration with Artification, Ealing Council’s Cultural Education Partnership, and an Ealing school. As part of the project she ran spray painting workshops with local primary school pupils and high school students. The pupils generated a complex and vibrant doodle grid, used to scale up the final mural design.
