Renowned artist Chris Rutterford has set his sights on completing the stunning mural at the Alloway Railway Tunnel by 2025 after being helped by 850 residents.
An ambitious project to turn an old Victorian railway tunnel into a stunning 150 metre wall mural could be completed by 2025.
Chris added a splash of colour to the capital's Colinton Tunnel, making it Scotland's largest historical mural. Artist Chris said: "The mural is looking fabulous, and I can’t wait to take it to the next stage. We are hoping for the first stage of the mural to be hung in time for Burns Night 2024 with a view to progressing the other stages throughout 2025.
Work on the Alloway Railway Tunnel has kickstarted thanks to the help of more than 850 residents who took part in a series of workshops. Chris added: "We’ve had an incredible fortnight meeting the ‘honest men and bonnie lasses’ from Alloway. It’s been hard work but incredibly productive. We are so grateful to have been allowed to use this fabulous gallery in a space that truly is one of the spiritual hearts of Scotland."
“We are also liaising with students from Ayrshire College by providing exciting work experience opportunities for the creative arts students. These opportunities will increase their skills, knowledge, experience and confidence and inspire them get started in their careers.
