Take 4 artists, a minister and 10 days in an empty lot and you have the makings of a project that transforms a neighborhood. Ann Shin followed Faith47 (S Africa), Indigo (Canada), Titi Freak (Brazil) and Peeta (Italy) as they painted a 130ft mural in one of the worst neighbourhoods of Vancouver’s downtown east side. The project sparked off a series of surprising events and the neighbourhood rallied together around the abandoned lot. Photos of the mural after the jump
