‘Seen From Space’ creating ever larger floor murals across county durham one small step at a time.
cyan_cic has an excellent reputation for delivering large scale arts and culture projects and fostering connections with communities and organisations across Durham.
we want to become uk-leaders in floor murals, by creating incrementally bigger murals over the next year.
starting small, we will work with organisations and communties to cultivate expertise, leading up to some of the biggest murals in the uk.
Example of a floor mural, popular in the US
Floor Murals?
Painted in UV and slip resistant paints, these murals are perfect for playgrounds, football courts and community spaces. We want to put Durham on the map with these murals which are perfect for collaborative painting.
Expertise in these paintings is most often found in places like the USA and France where basketball courts and more established street art scenes lead to some amazing paintings. We want to bring these to Durham.
big art, big social impact
This project is supported by LIGHT YEARS Durham University project, part of the ‘Into the Light’ Place Partnership, with Durham County Council and Culture Durham. LIGHT YEARS uses art to bring world class advances in space science and technology right into communities.
We’re excited to be part of this County-wide push to engage and inspire, with our huge collaborative murals.
how can you get involved?
we’re looking for space…
We are looking for large outdoor floor spaces in County Durham to offer FREE murals. This could be a school playground, a car park, a flat roof. The bigger the better! If you have a space in mind and would like join us in our mission to be ‘seen from space’, get in touch.
