Jungnang-gu Mural Project Turns a Neighborhood Into an Artistic Movement

The Jungnang-gu district office initiated the project that sparked the creativity behind transforming a neighborhood into a space that is now an inspirational artist and cultural movement. Artists Kim Daye, Min Kyung, and Seamoon collaborated to create a welcoming mural that's friendly, bright, and the perfect fit for a wall that's directly in front of an elementary school.

The artwork is a part of the 'Our neighbor art museum project' initiated by the Jungnang-gu district office. Grey concrete wall turned to a great canvas containing people living in Jungnang district and their story of life. 'Our neighbor art museum' project aims to transform places in the neighborhood into artistic spaces creating cultural vibes of daily life. Three artists participated and I used a childhood concept as the space was in front of an elementary school.
