Alleyway Project
We were lucky enough to co-ordinate with artist Scottie Gillespie to re-paint the Sidwell Street Alleyway (aka. chewing-gum alley) This was a community project led by Co Create. We had about 20 volunteers come to help us paint this colourful design and it has certainly put the alleyway on the map!
Location: Sidwell Street , Exeter
The how…
This project required an extreme cleanup of the alleyway prior to painting. We then set about whitewashing the walls and mapping out the artwork. Once we had allocated the design to specific areas we invited out team of volunteers to come and paint the range of colours in the necessary spaces and then finished it off with some black lines sprayed/painted over the top to add definition.
