‘It’s a way of educating people about our amazing county’
Sarah Evans is a mixed-media artist based in Wem, whose work can be seen all across Shropshire.
Shrewsbury’s Flaxmill Maltings commissioned Sarah to create a mural to brighten up the area on the former-canal side of the building’s café. As Sarah works with a variety of fragile and delicate materials, the plan was always to digitise the completed work, print it onto a weatherproof banner and suspend that from the railings by the café. That version of the mural mosaic was unveiled on Saturday afternoon.
But that leaves the original artwork looking for a home!
Sarah Evans hoped that space could be found for it elsewhere at the Flaxmill Maltings, but that now seems unlikely. In this episode of Hello You the Shropshire podcast, Sarah explains how you, or a public space near you, could play a part in the mural’s future.
If you know of somewhere that could host this amazing mural mosaic for a few months, with art and story-telling events and workshops around it, contact Sarah Evans on Facebook, and tell her Hello You sent you!
