Film canister placed near one of the remaining Wyland Whaling Wall
murals. Easy park and grab.
In 2008, twenty-seven years after Wyland’s quest began, the
artist and the Wyland Foundation completed the monumental goal of
painting 100 life-size public marine murals. These murals were
painted in life-size dimensions to increase appreciation and
understanding for aquatic habitats and the life within. Perhaps,
most importantly, they have reshaped attitudes about marine life
conservation.
“We know now that water connects all the countries of the
world,” Wyland says. “Our goal with these projects over
the last three decades has been to convey the urgency of
conservation issues to the public. The health of our ocean and
waterways are in jeopardy, not to mention the thousands of marine
animals and plants that face extinction if we do
nothing.”
The completed Whaling Wall campaign is one of the largest
art-in-public-places projects in history, spanning five continents,
13 countries, and 79 cities around the globe.
