Vibrant mural of MacroArt brings life to heart of London

121

UK’s leading large-format print expert MacroArt has teamed up with Mtec Fine Art as part of the 12th Edition of London’s Sculpture in the City project, which brings a key site in London to life with Arturo Herrera’s stunning mural Untitled, 2020. Made to contrast with the City’s steel and glass surroundings, Herrera’s Untitled, 2020, is situated on Creechurch Lane in Aldgate and surrounded by some of London’s key landmarks, including The Cheesegrater and The Gherkin. The MacroArt team printed the 9x21m mural onto self-adhesive vinyl using its Durst 512R printer with the artwork’s extraordinary colours designed to remain throughout the nine months it will be on show. Four installers worked across two days erecting the 190sq m mural, with a cherry picker mounted to the back of a lorry ensuring the artwork was accurately placed.
