On assignment _ portraits of graffiti artists Claire Kehoe & Anya Mielniczek two of Street artists working on Multipli’city @ Underpass park in partnership with Mural Routes, Friends of the Pan Am Path and StARToronto

In 2015 Mural Routes, working with these partners, managed the Live Art Festival, a live painting event that saw twenty artists transform the east side of the park. Since then, Underpass Park has become a much-photographed Toronto landmark. Multipli’city will extend this animation to the west side, and will compliment the existing public artwork Mirage by acclaimed artist Paul Raff, who has graciously given his permission for this project. “We are excited to work with a new group of diverse, talented artists to extend the transformation of Underpass Park,” said Karin Eaton, Executive and Artistic Director of Mural Routes. “The theme of multiplicity is intended to remind us that our diverse people are the real pillars of Canada; the artists themselves are a wonderful representation of this theme. They are a diverse group who will bring a range of styles to the project. We can’t wait to see their dynamic designs come to life.”
