Helping communities to commission and make public art that reflects the unique character of their shared public spaces

Murals | Metalwork | Creative Wayfinding Signage | Illustrated Maps | Town Trails | Creative Workshops | Art Walks

We are pleased to announce the formation of People Place Public Art CIC, a new community interest company based in the Royal Borough of Greenwich. People Place Public Art CIC aims to:

  • Empower people to create

  • Increase the vibrancy and highlight the unique character of shared public spaces

  • Build a sense of ownership and connection

Our process involves a mix of:

  • Consultation- so that people have a say in public art in their area

  • Co-design- giving people the opportunity to create, to tell their own stories and to draw on their expertise about their local area

  • Co-creation- involving people in painting murals to build a sense of ownership and connection between people working together

  • Celebration of new public artwork- increasing pride in shared public spaces

Ellen Strachan, Artist & Designer

People Place Public Art CIC was founded by Artist and Designer, Ellen Strachan (known professionally as Pigeon Loft Murals), along with two other experienced Directors to provide oversight. It builds on Ellen’s track record of successful community murals and creative wayfinding signage projects.

Through People Place Public Art CIC, we aim to bring the benefits of public art projects to a diverse range of communities. Ellen will now work on community art projects through People Place Public Art CIC and she will continue to offer murals for business and private residences through Pigeon Loft Murals.
