Description of work
"Nothing Happens in Good Weather" is a short-term public art project that activates a narrow empty lot on a busy section of South Fraser Street. With wide stripes and strident colour, what was once a gap in the streetscape has been transformed into an aesthetic and social space. The mural runs down one wall, across the ground plane and rakes up the opposite wall.
Artist statement
"During numerous research visits to South Hill, we found community members, sitting together on makeshift stools made out of milk-crates, stumps and shipping palettes on the sidewalks and grass easements. For our project, we wanted to encourage and reflect this informal socializing by converting an underused space into a bold aesthetic place where people can hangout". (Instant Coffee)
