A Happy Place (Bell Box)
Moynes and The Queensway
This colourful mural was painted on a square Bell Box with mostly teal for the background. On the left, there is a pink girl sitting outside in her neighbourhood, admiring the natural environment through the window. You can also see a few houses and green trees, and a big pink dove-like bird flying overhead.
Yasaman Mehrsa is a Toronto based studio and street artist. Her art is inspired by the connection between humans and nature, storytelling, symbols, and fantasy. She hopes to spread love and peace with the language of art. Yasaman wanted to communicate that Neighbourhood Love means to love yourself, your family, your home, your neighbours, and your neighbourhood.
When designing this piece, she thought about the beauty and peace that one can find in their surroundings. She imagined herself sitting in an outdoor space, admiring nature. She hopes the viewers can imagine themselves being the figure in her painting and feel peace, love and happiness from within. Her goal is to inspire those who see her work to look more carefully at the world around them and discover beauty in everything. As a person as well as artist, she truly loves colours and being colourful. She believes that art is one of the purest forms of communication and that it can connect people on different levels and in diverse ways.
