Cinematic Pioneer, Kingston resident
(9th April 1830 8th May 1904)
In community partnership with: Royal Borough
of Kingston, Kingston Museum & Kingston Local History
Room, St Lukes Primary School
Save The World Club has created a 21st century perspective
on the photographer Muybridge by using one of his original
ideas in a modern context to make a huge mosaic to cover
a graffiti wall. The competition winner and design inspiration
is by Ellie Felicien aged 11 from St Lukes Primary
School. More than 300 young people from local schools
including St Lukes Primary and Greycourt Secondary,
Coombe Girls School and through Save The World Clubs
successful after schools art club joined together to
make the image into a mosaic reality. The work is a
stunning addition to the town centre and will become
part of the heritage museum history walk. The project
was led by Miriam Zadik Gold.
The completed mosaic mural is on permanent display in
Castle Street, central Kingston. Come and see for yourself
how sensational it is!
