Ashanti Resurrection

Aerosol on Brick. 10' x 18'. Southside wall in CONC Back Alley facing park. Flora freshly removed.

Artists: Original execution: Patterson and Danillo. Clean-up: LOFT Volunteers

Dates: Painted in 2002. Clean-up early Aug 07


Thanx to the help of the LOFT volunteers and the cooperation of the City of Toronto Solid Waste Management team, we were able to truly clean up the CONC Back Alley and CORA park.

 

While we would love to spend all our time designing and painting murals, clean-up is an essential part of our program's success. In the case of the Ashanti wall, this meant taking down the shrubery and letting this powerful mural shine once again.

We are now working on the West-facing wall of the Ashanti store, one of the final walls remaining in and around the park that is a priority for this year's CONC mural program.

Semi-primed September 10. 2007. Designs inspired by the Ashanti sculpture collection. We expect to complete the piece by September 17.
