As a natural meeting point between Morag Myerscough + Crown Paints, colour is celebrated in Floral Timekeepers.

A new permanent mural and large-scale pollinator-friendly planters draw attention to the artist’s passion for re-greening the public realm and creating a visually arresting home for nature.

Supported by the High Street Accelerator Project.

Born and bred in London, Morag Myerscough is known globally for creating immersive structural installations characterised by boldness, vibrant colours and a high level of positive energy.

The artist’s installations, which have appeared all over the world, have a profound impact on public spaces, transcending the limitations of traditional approaches. Her vibrant and invigorating works disrupt existing architectural lines, introducing irregular shapes, colours and words.

Myerscough’s approach to work is integrated and participatory, wherein she collaborates closely with communities to generate art that responds to their unique requirements. Her generous approach instils a sense of pride and belonging in people, creating a strong and meaningful narrative for the spaces she transforms. The core motivation behind her work is to bring people together, fostering joy, well-being, and a sense of community.
