Abstract

Salsa is a site specific wall painting commissioned for the entrance / staircase of Hope Street Exchange, the new Centre for Enterprise and Innovation in Sunderland. The colours reflect the vibrancy of this new hybrid workspace hub of the University of Sunderland. The painting which starts on the wall behind receptions spans over the ceiling of the lobby area and reaches up to the top floor spanning over three floors and is at night visible through the giant curved glass wall to the passing public from outside
