Strength

was one of two pieces completed in Carlisle on the 26th of September 2020 and the 1st mural painted directly onto a wall by artist Lucie Flynn. Using a combination of spraypaint and coloured emulsions, the work sits high up on the rear wall of The Thin White Duke bar on Friars Court.

Lucie said of her work "There are not enough women represented in the street art scene or graffiti scene - I wanted to produce an artwork that had life and power to it. ‘Strength’ reflects women who mean business! My colour pallete is always a primary driving force and for this I really wanted the colour to pop off the walls. You cant miss it and my aim was to create an artwork that had a unique quality - something you could sit and get involved in from the courtyard restaurant that it overlooks and from the street it sits against."
