i was recently involved in the restoration of the Brixton windmill mural, Facebook link
artists involved – Mr Cenz (coordinator), Aero, Tizer and Solo one from Positivearts.co.uk (community Mural specialists)
The Windmill mural, Lyham Road was originally painted by Mick Harrison and Caroline Thorp — 1983. the mural had become very faded by the elements over the years and was at risk of being lost . The mural tells the history of Brixton’s Windmill, the only inner city windmill still surviving in London.
the project was undertaken by Ruth from the London mural preservation society , Vinnie from New leaf , Clapham film unit and Positivearts.co.uk
the mural restoration is part of a documentary the Clapham film unit is filming about London’s murals called ‘If walls could speak’
