Conformity Rules - Mural

School Mural

I’d like to start off with my Lower Sixth form project, a mural I call “Conformity Rules”

This mural was the largest thing I ever worked on during my time at Wolmer’s. The mural itself is 5 feet by 3 feet piece of plyboard painted using acrylic paint.

The piece is supposed to tell a story of self-acceptance and allowing yourself to be different without following the standard society has set.

The girl in the middle (who I decided to name Van) possesses hair made of twigs and leaves, essentially a bush flourishing healthily with flowers; this was used as a symbol of growth and overcoming. The flowers on her hair are Amaryllis flowers; they stand for splendid beauty and pride. 

The blue, ghostlike hands represent society, calling out Van for existing so differently, trying to tell her to stop. The hands also interact with the statue girls in a “hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil” way, the “evil” being Van and her lack of uniformity. It can also be read as society keeping the other girls from attempting to be different by shielding them from Van’s influence.
