ABOUT
This mural located on Ferry Lane, next to Tottenham Hale Station, is a tribute to the beauty and resilience of nature, with a focus on the local wetlands and marshes in and around Tottenham with their lush ecosystems.Dominated by deep, rich greens, the artwork comes alive with towering flowers, dense vegetation, and meandering water representing the river Lea. In the foreground, native wetland animals—such as herons, fish, insects and a fox—move gracefully through their natural habitat.
A big orange sun and a small orange moon are focal points in this green tapestry, noting how transformative the day and night are in these ecosystems, bringing out different animals and circadian behaviours.
On the left of the mural we see the front part of a boat with a box of chickens, this is a nod to the logo of Tottenham Hale station. The logo designed by Edward Bawden, depicts a woman with her chickens and a dog being propelled across a river in a ferry boat by a ferryman with a pole-punt.
At its core, the mural serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving these vital ecosystems, celebrating the biodiversity, beauty, and serenity that wetlands bring to our world. It’s a living, breathing snapshot of nature’s green heart.A big thank you to Made by Tottenham, Haringey Council and CEZ Mayor of London.
