Cheltenham Train Station

Here are some snaps from a project I shot for The City of Kingston who commissioned artists Andrew Bourke and James Beattie to create an artwork on the side of an apartment complex at the Cheltenham Train Station. The City of Kingston has been working with developers on new projects to beautify the local area and what better place for this than a walkway beside the train tracks. Not typically thought of as an inspiring space it was transformed in a partnership between The City of Kingston, the developers of the apartment project and some local artists. The response from the local community has been overwhelmingly positive. The piece includes references to the local history and the environment of the area. I shot the project using locals passing by as subjects and it was great to hear all the positive feedback on what they thought of the project. You can read about the artists and the story behind the project here.
