As this bustling spot invites constant thoroughfare, I’ve designed this mural to pay tribute to Dublin’s ‘main characters’ whose everyday actions add vibrancy and charm to our cityscape. From a man paddleboarding with his dog on the Canal, to a lady playing the cello, a man feeding the birds at St. Stephen's Green, and an old man playing musical spoons, each scene captures the enchantment of everyday life. Through these captivating moments, I celebrate the creativity of individuals within our community, embracing Dublin’s unique local identity.
