Strathcona Artists & the LRT

Strathcona Community Rail Garden members Kyla Fischer & Helen Gerritzen have created a SuperTrain for the Capital & Metro Lines!

Covering the interior and exterior of the train with lush imagery and scenes from their gardens, Kyla and Helen bring the experience of a community garden abuzz with bees, birds and greenery to transit goers.
Called a SuperTrain, this temporary public art project celebrates the Edmonton community garden, and explores the ways that these gardens connect us to the land, nature, and each other in an urban setting. 
The design was created as part of a public art initiative led by SNAP (The Society of Northern Alberta Print-artists) in partnership with the Edmonton Arts Council and Pattison Outdoor Advertising.
The train will run throughout 2024 on the Capital and Metro lines.
