In Perspective (2010)

Slow down and take in this quietly moving community mural along Lake Shore West, where real neighbourhood faces are painted into everyday scenes of local life. Born from a Lakeshore Arts contest, artist Matthew Hansen wove together resident-submitted portraits into a warm, street-level snapshot of the community — a bearded man on a path, a woman at a café. It's the kind of public art that rewards a second glance and makes an ordinary evening stroll feel a little more meaningful. Perfect for after work — drop in solo or bring a friend. No experience necessary.
