You’ve seen those giant masterpieces on city walls right? Murals! it’s not just about beautifying the streets it’s an art form that connects generations
Sarah Slaughter is a Calgary-based visual artist whose practice is a reflection of her wide open perspective and respect for multi-disciplinary creation. Immersed in a world where art is everything, she distinguishes herself by her versatility and fearless approach to design and ingenuity. Sara says that it’s more than just eye candy, It’s like a community therapy session! Studies say that public art reduces stress, boost creativity in communities, and it just makes people feel good.
