Chinese Blossoms

Calgary, AB

The mural is dedicated to the seniors for the legacy they built here in Calgary.
The Chinese blossom represents transition and new birth.
The passing of the blossom branch in this mural is seen as a passing of traditions.
From the generations that arrived in Canada over 100 years ago to the youngest generation of Chinese here in Canada today.
The blossom mural is a symbol of strength and perseverance in an age of change, cross cultural relations, as well as bridging gaps between the generations of Chinese and cultures in Calgary.
Artist: Dale Barry - D.N.B. Arts
