Lyon Part-Dieu Mural
SCOPE OF WORKIllustration
In parallel with the graphic identity and communication strategy for the Biennale de Lyon 16th edition, Studio Safar was commissioned to create a mural located in Lyon’s Part-Dieu station. The mural is a reimagined floral silk scarf framed by two arabic calligraphy banners. This piece echoes the silk industry that was brought to Lebanon by France, which was responsible for the modernization of Lebanon, but also brought ecological depletion, famine, and mass migration.
This is the largest piece of work Studio Safar has done to date. The illustration was conceptualized and sketched by Hatem Imam, I was then commissioned to render, redraw and finalize the illustration.
