A striking new mural designed by London-based artist Rob Lowe, AKA Supermundane, has been unveiled at The Yards in Covent Garden, to celebrate the power of creativity and the city’s bustling cultural scene, which Londoners can’t wait to embrace once again.
Located on the side of the London Graphic Centre, a leading art and design supplier for almost fifty years, the hand-painted display spans an impressive 180 sq. m across the wall and pavement area on Mercer Street. Central to the pastel-coloured artwork is the phrase ‘Creativity is in all of us’, rendered in Lowe’s trademark geometric and graphic style.
Inspired by the area’s artistic heritage, the piece was painted by Global Street Art Agency and offers an uplifting message about the potential for creativity in everyone, conveyed via a vibrant design that locals will be able to enjoy throughout the year.
Artist Rob Lowe, says of the mural: “Creativity is in all of us, it might be buried deep in some, but it is there. It’s something we are all born with – to greater and lesser degrees – but as we get older we are told there are right and wrong ways to do things and many people lose confidence with making mistakes, which are essential in creativity. If we are not allowed to make mistakes we cannot be truly creative. Hopefully, this mural will encourage people to take a brush, pen, pencil, or anything you can make a mark with, and go for it.”
