Revealing Southbury has been delivered as part of Curate Enfield, a Journeys and Places initiative. Curate Enfield is a public art programme creating vibrant public projects across Enfield, and is funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF).
This project has been delivered in partnership with Fisher Cheng Architects. The project team commissioned artists Qwynto for the artwork outside Southbury railway station and Andrew Werdna of Blank walls for the artwork on Southbury Road Parade. The project has produced a number of highly visible public artworks that uplift high-footfall areas around Southbury.
Join us on Saturday 7 June, 2:00-4:30pm at Southbury Launderette, 467 Southbury Road, Enfield EN3 4HX to launch the new murals
Completing our Revealing Southbury programme delivered in collaboration with Fisher Cheng Architects, this event will launch and celebrate six vibrant artworks recently introduced to Southbury, which have been co-designed with local communities.
The artworks include Morning Commute – a stunning and ambitious mural on the bridge opposite Southbury Station, created by artist Qwynto in collaboration with year 6 pupils from Southbury School; and Southbury Parade, a series of bold and striking artworks on the shop shutters along Southbury Road, created by artist Andrew Werdna and the Blank Walls collective, in collaboration with local residents.
This event will also share the outcomes of the Revealing Southbury Project, including some fantastic work produced by our Place Champions Safia and Trini for the project, and include free refreshments and creative activities.
Revealing Southbury engaged communities in the concept of these public artworks while also inviting them to consider Southbury’s history and future identity. The project will inform an emerging Place Plan, designed to support future development and growth in Southbury.
