Mimico @ FBI
Completed September 2017, grant by the City of Toronto, Lakeshore Arts & the Mimico-by-the-Bay BIA. A 22’x60’ original mural design by Herman Mejia
A mural that pays tribute to the Mimico neighbourhood in an abstract colorful setting with icons embedded within its core. A bird’s eye view as if it were a map with two of the main roads in Mimico, Lake Ontario, and elements drawn from the community (i.e. Toronto’s skyline, people, bikes, sailboats, pets) and the monumental pigeon in the core to revive the “Ojibwe” term Omiimiikaa that’s the basis for the Mimico name which means “abundant with wild pigeons”
As a finishing detail, the involvement of the Mimico community as an intricate part of the artwork; hand-prints from passerby which help cement the last “strokes”

Turned On, by Daniel J. Kirk and Ivan Ostapenko
The contemporary landscape in most all of its forms is bound to include a certain human presence. Evident of a human presence in the proposed mural takes form as industrial machines and subtle references to technological development. These selected technologies illustrate the human struggle to manipulate and control their surroundings.
The valve system illustrated as a common water faucet makes a metaphoric leap into the idea of choice. The valve is open and implies that it was turned on by someone. The intention is to suggest the question of why?Artists: Daniel J. Kirk and Ivan Ostapenko

As Above, So Below by Daniel J. Kirk & Ivan Ostapenko
The concept of the image is derived from the function of the building, and is a visual exploration of the water cycle. The viewer is presented with a partially submerged view of an unidentified water body, and includes depictions of fishermen, polar bears, and marine life. The molecular structure of water is revealed as it flows in and through the machine. Glacial formations are seen in the background, while at the front of the scene there is a void into which the water is rushing – suggesting the known sources and often unknown destinations for water. The overall scene is intended to conjure up questions relating to water as a resource, without providing judgement or conclusion. Artists: Daniel J. Kirk & Ivan Ostapenko
