Blue Sunset - a new mural for The Pump House by Royal Victoria DLR

Graphic Rewilding have created a mural in bloom... inspired by Docks locals!

A vibrant new public mural is set to transform the Pump House in Royal Victoria Dock this summer, marking the beginning of an exciting artistic journey for the area. Commissioned by the Royal Docks Team and curated by Hive Curates for Royal Docks Originals 2025 festival, this mural will serve as a creative gateway for thousands of daily visitors to Royal Victoria DLR.

In response to an open call for artists, renowned creative duo Graphic Rewilding, led by Lee Baker and Catherine Borowski, will lend their signature floral-inspired designs to Projekt’s Pump House this summer. Their work is designed to uplift and inspire, reflecting the powerful effect that nature has on well-being. Studies show that even images of nature can reduce stress and boost mood, making this mural not just a visual landmark but a source of positivity for all who see it.

Royal Docks Originals 2025 is a brand-new biennial festival taking place this autumn, promising world-class arts, spectacular installations, and premier performances made here. The 2025 festival theme of transformation reflects the evolution of the area and its pivotal role, past and present, in London’s global story.

The mural will embody this spirit, capturing the dynamic landscape and diverse stories of the people who shape the area.

Beyond its role in setting the tone for Royal Docks Originals 2025, the mural will become a lasting creative landmark. Positioned at a key entry point to Royal Victoria Dock, it will welcome visitors and stand as a symbol of community, connection and transformation.
