Source of inspiration for the design of the mural was 'the disappeared aviary', an aviary that once stood in the Wilhelminapark. A group of children visited the park with the words "Hey, what's flying there?" in order to give as much space and liveliness to their imagination as possible. Together with Kunstkabaal, artists Ivo van Leeuwen (TilburgsAns) and Timothy Mahler, the children set to work. During a workshop held at Zomerkabaal (summer festival), they designed and painted a mural on the facade of Stichting Kunstkabaal, under the guidance of both artists.
The project was made possible by Art-fact within the program "Neighborhood Culture and Art with Impact", by the City of Tilburg and CuPuDo.
