URBO Mural
Set against a beige canvas, this mural-scale work presents an exposed human figure translated into the architectural language of URBO. Drawing techniques such as hatching and preliminary shadowing -typically reserved for smaller works- are amplified to architectural scale. The mural stands as the culmination of the Urban Bodies series, where body and city fully converge.

Raising the Mural
In 2018, this 6x7m large canvas was moved into a large industrial pavilion in East London. The painting was then finished on the floor and raised for the first time to assess the composition and make the last adjustments to the artistic composition
