This film details the creation of a monumental 450m2 mural opposite St. Pancras International in Kings Cross, London. The mural, which has been painted by four members of Agents of Change – Remi/Rough, Steve More, LX.One and Augustine Kofie – encompasses two sides of a five storey Georgian building.
The mural took over two weeks to complete working from an initial design - which was bounced between Los Angeles, Edinburgh, Paris and London - and was commissioned by the hotel's owner and The Narrative.
From a design perspective the artists collaborated to create a single work that would utilise their different styles and perspectives to create a modern mural that integrates with the surrounding area, and emphasises Kings Cross’ status as a major gateway for international and national visitors alike.
The influence of the mural continues inside the building with a permanent collection of artworks created for the restaurant and a one of a kind reception interior designed and executed…

The Ghostvillage Project was created over 3 days on the west coast of Scotland. 6 artists - Timid, Remi/Rough, System, Stormie Mills, Juice 126, Derm - were given free reign to paint in an abandoned 1970s village. Working together on huge collaborative walls and individually in hidden nooks and crannies all over the site the artists realised long held dreams and were inspired by the bleakness and remoteness of the site. Drawing on the history of the village the artists' stated intent on completion of the project was to populate the ghostvillage with the art and characters that it deserved.

This is how the festival described the project...
"Fresh from their Ghost Village project transforming an abandoned village on the west coast of Scotland, the contemporary art collective Agents of Change will work in secret and at a monumental scale, transforming an urban location in Manchester for the Future Everything festival. The very special secret location will be visible only over a video link, with clues to its location being gradually released, culminating in a public opening on the last day of the festival."

Working in secret and on a monumental scale we transformed a massive wall at The Sharp project in Manchester for the Future Everything festival. The entire project was broadcast live on the internet, with clues to its location being gradually released, culminating in a public opening on the last day of the festival.
Just think about it… What if you were trapped under something heavy and the mouse was out of your reach? Scary, right? That's exactly why we have these keyboard shortcuts so you can still use Vimeo until the help arrives.
