Danny ‘EJEK’ McDermott partnered with the charity to help create a warm welcome for those going through treatment at the Springburn hospice. The artwork, which took around 24 hours to complete, was unveiled to the public yesterday (April 11).
Glasgow 's Marie Curie hospice has unveiled a stunning mural which was completed by a renowned Glaswegian graffiti artist.
“The organisation has touched the hearts of so many families not just here in Glasgow, but right across Scotland, so it was a real privilege to give something back to the staff and volunteers. We scoped out a couple of areas for the mural, but eventually decided the entrance atrium to the ward would be the perfect place to position it.
“Showcasing art has always featured in our hospice but nothing on this scale before. EJEK’s design quite literally takes it to new heights and transforms the atrium entrance.
