Doncaster Urban Park, transformed
A park in Doncaster is the latest canvas for street artists Craig Evans and Tom Jackson, who work together under the name Static.
The Scarborough duo are working with Doncaster Creates and AOP Projects on their first major paint project in the north of England. This follows exhibitions in Asia and the U.S as well as a high profile presence on the London street art scene.
The project, that is part of an initiative to breathe fresh life into Baxter Park, has seen the creative pair undertake phase one of an ambitious scheme, starting with an end gable paint which forms part of a wider scheme next year, devised through engagement sessions with the public including local school children, about how best to uplift this park and imagery.
Static write, Like many of the locations we have been invited to paint in the last few years, Baxter Park is a communal space somehow missing a community - a shadow of what it might have been in the past.
