“What is the Neighbourhood’s DNA?â€â€‹
What makes an area special? ​
Is it the place? ​Is it its history? ​Is it the people? ​Or its sense of purpose?​
What makes White City feel like White City?
Through a range of different workshops connecting local people to staff, students and researchers from ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ who live or work on the White City Campus, artists AYLO and SECA (aka Hayley and Christian) took your insight to capture the essence of White City for a new mural at Stadium House, What is Made Here Travels Out.
Your ideas helped to shape this new unique, distinctive, and place-based artwork capturing the DNA of the new White City Campus and the local area. Read more about the artwork and the process behind it in the ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ News article.
Public art on White City Campus
The Stadium House Mural is a pilot public art project for White City Campus.
We have a long-term ambition to incorporate public art in the development of White City Campus. We hope that original, thought-provoking, creative artworks in our public spaces will enhance the day-to-day experience of those working, living and visiting White City Campus.
This pilot project is an opportunity to work with the community, from within ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ and across the local area, to test and learn about how we can work together to create inspiring, considered public art which is responsive to its context.
As the Stadium House Mural project develops, we will keep the local and ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ community informed of its progress.
