The existence of humankind is woven into an interdependent ecosystem with flora and fauna, and maintaining a delicate equilibrium among all living beings is essential for our mutual survival. The significance of seemingly modest elements like meadows often goes unnoticed within our biodiversity, but they play a critical role in supporting the wider ecosystem.

SNIK’s mural draws inspiration from Hereford’s wildflower meadows, which date back to the 1850s. By planting a wildflower garden beside the mural, SNIK aims to connect the city centre with the surrounding nature, highlighting the importance of preserving these sacred spaces in a time of decline.
