Glasgow Mural Honors Human Rights Activist and Celebrates Protesting for the Greater Good
American muralist JEKS ONE traveled across the ocean to bring his hyperrealistic style to the walls of Glasgow. Created in the riverside district of Govan, the mural honors celebrated Scottish activist Mary Barbour. As a political activist, magistrate, and local councillor, Barbour was a prominent figure in the first half of the 20th century. JEKS ONE was charged with capturing her spirit on a wall that came together quickly.
