Artello: Hana

Commissioned by Gather Co. and partially funded by the City of Edmonton Facade Renewal Program, Hana is a mural commissioned as part of a revitalisation effort, turning the building into a beacon of light to bring brightness in the dark months and to amplify the sun in the summer months.

The piece was created by hand, and then digitised to create stencils. Each shape was painted by hand in contrasting black and gold to create the final mural.

Artello is Keith-yin Sun and Judi Chan. They are based in Edmonton, Canada.
