Bringing some Czech folk art to the Bloorcourt neighbourhood.

This playful and vibrant piece celebrates the art and culture of Eastern Europeans living in Toronto and Bloorcourt Village, which I’m glad to call my home. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for my father who immigrated from Czech Republic to Canada in 1969, in order to live a better life and for which I’m eternally grateful.

Painted for the Bell Box Murals Project and the Bloorcourt BIA.
