Lifecycle Community Bike Project took place at G.W. Skene an elementary
school located in Calgary's north east. For two consecutive afternoon's
in March 2013, artists Hannah Poon and Lisa Tornack had the opportunity
to work with 75 grade 5 to design and paint an interactive mural. This
mural project utilizes salvaged bike parts to create a vibrant outdoor
mural for the Lifecycle Community Bike Shop and G.W Skene. The three
grade five classes brainstormed around themes of walk-able, bike-able
cities and Calgary to create the final three paneled triptic. Each of
the three panels will find a home in separate parts of the city. The
first will find it's home at the Lifecycle Community Bike Shop, the
second will be keep as a legacy piece for the school, and the third will
be gifted to a public space in north east Calgary.
We would like to thank Lifecycle Community Bike, staff and students of G.W Skene for and a big thank you to Calgary 2012 for their generous support of this project!
