This mural at 20 Charles Street East – on the west side of the Green P parking garage – was conceptualized and painted over six days by Becker from Frankfurt, Germany, with support from local artists Alexander Bacon, Quentin Rockford, Christina Mazzulla and Kyla Buium.
The piece is entitled Toronto & Stadt Frankfurt Am Main. The landscape of Toronto and Frankfurt appear in the reflection of the glasses on the mural and illustrates the special friendship the two cities have shared for the past 30 years.
The space at 20 Charles Street East was provided by the Toronto Parking Authority.
Diversity is what Frankfurt and Toronto hold in common, and that very much influenced my concept. The vibrant and colourful pallet represents the diversity of people in Toronto and the fingerprint represents the idea that each one of us has an impact in our society.
