FOX MURAL BY OHHI OHNO
🦊 FOX MURAL BY OHHI OHNO [ATHLUNKARD STREET AND ISLAND ROAD IN LIMERICK]
The Athlunkard Fox: A Symbol of Limerick's Wildlife
Located at the prominent junction of Athlunkard Street and Island Road in Limerick city, a striking, large-scale mural of a fox captures the attention of passers-by. This impressive piece of street art is the work of the artist Ohhi Ohno, also known as Lulu Keeley.
The mural is a significant contribution to the "Wildlife Walls" initiative, an urban art project designed to celebrate and highlight the region's natural heritage. "Wildlife Walls" is a creative collaboration between the urban art specialists Draw Out and Limerick City and County Council.
The primary goal of the initiative is to foster greater public awareness of Limerick's rich biodiversity. It achieves this by commissioning vibrant, high-profile murals that depict indigenous Irish animals and plants. The fox, a familiar yet wild resident of both urban and rural landscapes, serves as a powerful and visible reminder of the wildlife that shares the city environment.
