A new mural in Nottinghamshire inspiring residents to "look to the stars" has been completed. The spray-painted addition in Portland Square, Sutton-in-Ashfield, depicting the town's past and future represents its long history of hosiery manufacturing.
The mural was painted in just 32 hours using spray paint by internationally known artist Zabou. Zabou is a French street artist based in London who travels the world painting her photo realist murals.
The mural was named ‘Look at the Stars’ by Zabou after shehad finished it. The Sutton mural features the Walton Stocking Factory in the background. Zabou said: "It was a pleasure to paint my first mural of 2022 in Sutton and meet the local community. I hope that my work will brighten up people's day, maybe inspire them, and hopefully shine a light on both the future and the past of the town."
