While painting Pool for Change, passersby asked if there was anything we could do about the park which was just "droeg" (dry) and had no functioning kids activities.
The Park and Pool for Change are both on an intersection where rival gang fights go crazy, resulting in many child deaths. RIP Bradley Arendse, who lost his life in this park.

After finishing the Pool for Change mural we missioned for some Fish 'n Chips. There was no way we could say no, and to be honest we were pumped to transform the park.

People were amped on the colour and imagery brought into a usually dark and depressing space for them.

Have you been watching our stories👀
Pool 4 Change is NGO based in Seawinds that keeps kids off the street and competing in Western Province championships instead.

Halfway through our first day of painting, we had to down tools because gang violence exploded in the area👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾 We went back, and made magic with the team💛

Making a house, a home🌼

Did you know?
Lawrence house, a child and youth Care centre based in Woodstock, was the birthplace of the movement.

We wanted to create a sense of warmth, happiness and optimism with this entrance piece.
Seeing the kids smile as they walk through the door, priceless♥️
