YVR Street Art

One that has been on my list of must take photo for about 2 yrs. Finally, and accidentally, passed by it the other night not intending to mural hunt... but ya know... when you see one you just have to stop!

Steve Smith creates art based on Indigenous Northwest Coast design elements. He incorporates playfulness through vivid and unexpected colours with a goal to cre...ate work that amplifies messages of love, harmony, peace, friendship, and their uniting characteristic of connection. We absolutely love this wrap around mural and the message it conveys Find it at 3425 Main Street. I believe we are all connected to everyone, and to everything. My work focuses on the positive aspects of life and every piece I make is created with these intentions of unity in mind. In Northwest Coast First Nations mythology ‘Raven’ is often referred to as the Trickster, Creator and transformer of the world. The mural I have created for VMF is titled, ‘Love, Knowledge and Peace. The archetype of Raven, the ability for transformation, and the hope to strive toward peace inspires this painting. Depicted in this piece are three large baby ravens looking skyward, their mouths open, waiting to be fed. I envision their mother, the creator feeding them with the essential gifts of nourishment: love, knowledge and peace. These are gifts we all desire, and that we can give to ourselves and give to each other. The oversized design of the ravens, as well as the vibrancy of colours are used to evoke a playful, and powerful feeling, reminding us to love, to seek knowledge, and to hunger for peace. This mural was supported by Wondershare Photos by Gabriel Martins
