The City Is His Gallery

Andy | Tuesday, January 10, 2017 | Best Blogger Tips
Artist Elicser Elliott and his cross section of the city’s diverse faces. His art has had an impact on the cityscape of Toronto. From the “Hug Me Tree" (see it here) to the traffic signal boxes he has beautified as part of the StArt “Out of the Box” initiative, to his innumerable wall murals that can be spotted in both indoor and outdoor spaces across the Greater Toronto Area.

  1. Another good one and I love that you put also a part of the street in the shot. Makes it so much more lively.

  4. This mural celebrates the strength of urban diversity. It is the best of neighborhood art.

  5. I see more and more murals whenever I head south to the city, especially Victoria. Which is a good thing, livens up the urban landscape.

  10. Interesting mural. I wonder if we have anything like it in the US?
    This photo is totally city! Art, nature, traffic, buildings...and are those railings for subway stairs? My daughter had a flight layover in Toronto and she was totally impressed with the very little she saw... but not the weather. :)
