Bell Box - Michael Cavanaugh

Bell Canada service box painted to resemble a damaged wall fresco

Location: Isabella Street, east of Yonge
Date photo taken: 27 December 2018
Image #11 in the Bellbox Series

This fresco, seemingly damaged by the ravages of time, was painted as part of the 2016 Bell Box Murals Project. The artist, Michael Cavanaugh, started the program back in 2009 and in 2018 was recognized with an Urban Hero award for his contribution to the city. While similar in concept to the Outside the Box program initiated in 2013 and run by StreetARToronto, this program remains an independent art project, carried out in partnership with Bell Canada.
