BECOMING 🌿✨

Our latest UNFURL mural is complete, and we’re so excited to finally share the finished piece with you!

Painted on Cumberland Street in Sheffield city centre, Becoming is a celebration of women, growth, transformation and the beauty of embracing who we are as we continue to evolve.

Over the days spent bringing this wall to life, we had so many lovely people stop to chat, share their thoughts and show their support. The overwhelmingly positive response reminded us exactly why we do what we do. Public art has the power to bring people together, spark conversations and breathe new life into everyday spaces. 🌬️

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by, encouraged us and made our time in Sheffield so special. And, of course, to everyone who helped make this project possible!

We hope Becoming brings a little colour, joy and inspiration to everyone who passes by.

📍 Cumberland Street, Sheffield — just around the corner from Moor Market. Go take a look!

With love,
Natasha & Rebecca | UNFURL 🌱

Absolutely stunning work by @ruokmyluv on Charles Street outside @watt_bar. Those colours are very fitting for the current season.

This is another mural supported by @friends.ofscc.

"She Weeps"

Spray paint on wooden boards

This piece draws from gothic literature and architecture in building a scene around decay, despair, and a haunting atmosphere. This scene aims to evoke a sense of bittersweet loss, in which even the beautiful and the divine fall, yet mother nature prevails, even after mistreatment.
I visited several overgrown Victorian graveyards during the development of this design, taking inspiration from the many statues I found there and the sombre atmosphere. The headstones which had sunk into the ground, now illegible and consumed by ivy, were most poignant, and it was this idea of finding beauty in returning to the earth once forgotten that drove me to create the piece.

I want to thank Bridget from @friends.ofscc for the amazing work she does across the city and for providing me with the opportunity to create this piece.

This was my first time painting a mural, and also my first time working with spray paint. Under the constraints of a very limited timeframe due to my own availability, I also had to battle with the wind and rain to get this piece finished. Despite the challenges, it was a very enjoyable process.

I am thrilled to have been able to contribute to the ever growing Sheffield street art scene. You can find the mural on Pond Street, opposite the Sheffield Interchange.

Challenging the odds in Sheffield.

The human instinct to fight back when the odds are stacked against you is a fascinating thing. I love stepping into the uncertain. Why? I have no idea. But I do know I hate to see the antelope being taken down.

We’re in love with the new mural at Watt Bar! 💛

A massive thank you to @ruokmyluv and @friends.ofscc for bringing it to life. It adds so much colour to the street and we couldn’t be happier with how it’s turned out.

Next time you’re passing, make sure you check it out! 📸 🎨 ⚡️

This is by far the biggest wall I’ve painted in town so far. I had a lot of challenges with this project technically, but the biggest challenge I faced was doubt. I changed compositions, ideas and colours throughout which made my life a little harder, but this was my own fault 😅.

I have never painted skin tones with spray paint before and was really out of my comfort zone, especially as she was made from my head and not from a photo. I re did her face about 5 times and although she’s not perfect I’ve learnt a lot from this project and that’s valuable.

In this mural I wanted to combine my illustrative storytelling with the abstract elements I’ve been experimenting with over the past year or two. I don’t think it’s the most technically perfect piece but I feel like I’ve achieved the feeling I set out too.

Huge thanks to @watt_bar for their incredibly lovely staff giving me encouragement, food and drinks! And Andy for allowing me to paint this huge wall.

Once again thank you to @friends.ofscc for giving me an opportunity to experiment and trusting my vision. Shout out @thenationallottery for funding the project.

Also a massive shout out to @lezaxer for assisting for a week and really helping me solve some of the creative problems I was having! Couldn’t have done it without you man!

Btw it’s been a very grey day so sorry about the over editing on the pics. Might post one in the sun later on.

God speed 🪶🦋🦊
