Occasional Toronto: Trees

Trees

I spotted this mural made up of wooden cut-outs of trees along Dundas St W and then later found several installations of the same type of cut-outs in the area but these ones seem to work the best. They may have been installed to discourage tagging along the wall of this low rise apartment building. I really liked that utility box on the right side and will show you the other side tomorrow.
Taking part in Monday Murals. Click HERE to see more murals from around the world.

Sharon said...: I like this very much. But, I see it didn't stop tagging on that door. What a shame. I took some photos yesterday of a couple of murals and both had tags on them. I hate to see that.; August 28, 2017 at 10:41 AM

Jack said...: It is odd that in Toronto building owners have to try pre-emptive almost-murals in an effort to discourage more damaging kinds of tagging. But, this one looks good.; September 4, 2017 at 10:28 PM
