““With walls, some you win and some you lose – sometimes it takes the right approach, at the right time, in the right way and with a bit of faith and luck too.
7 years in the making. Will we ever get the chance to create something at this site and, if so, what will it be? If so, how do we access it, whose consent is required, which partners needs must be met and how do we strike the balance through all of that? Which roads need closing, which busses re-routing?
And what’s so compelling about Nuart Aberdeen is that this artwork now feels like it’s always been there, we just haven’t been able to see it.
This is a very special mural. Patience and persistence, time, talent and the best team and partners able to make it happen. And a phenomenal artwork gifted to the city as a result”.”
