Friday night, I invested the better part of an hour chalking an entire Labyrinth in one of the Entertainment District’s car-free intersections on Granville Street.

Curious to see how much of it survived the day’s vehicle traffic, I returned Saturday night after the street was again closed off to cars and open for people.

Finding my previous night’s faint chalk outline had survived in varying degrees, the Labyrinth remained walkable.

I went for a test walk, and in doing so, a young boy with his mom observing, also began walking it.

A pleasant conversation followed and the young boy and his mom thanked me.

That was enough to confirm what I was going to do anyway, re-chalk the outline of the faded Labyrinth.

I decided to leave the aglets without re-chalked hearts at each of the turns.

I only redrew Hearts at the entrance and the centre this time. A rare decision on my part.

A safe estimate would be that hundreds of people walked, ran, laughed, and made this Labyrinth a part of their party night along Granville Street in Downtown Vancouver.

Including this young Lady, Karen, who stood out for me, as I saw her truly engage and explore and invest much time walking the Labyrinth.

Unexpectedly, found her instagram post, and here it is…

Directions and process

“I was commissioned by Centre for Comparative Muslim Studies to create this mural.

At first,

we were looking to create a design that would represent Muslims in Vancouver.

It immediately felt like an overwhelming task,

because one piece of work won’t do any justice to the complexity and uniqueness of these people.

So I took a step back and decided to design this mural for all of the minorities in this city.

I wanted to Illustrate one of the many struggles minorities and immigrants face:

cultural and identity differences.

These differences might feel like a burden when they don’t fit into a society you’re trying to adjust to.

We do not have to justify our culture, traditions and identity.

We’re all so different for a reason.”

why can’t they see us?

For when others want you and I to fit into this one image they have created.

We are different for a reason.

I designed this mural using Arabic square Kufic script to illustrate a verse from the Qur’an that says

“We have created you from male and female and we made you into tribes and nations that you may know each other” (49:13)

“Here’s the thing I’ve been working on for the past couple weeks!!🎉✨

By creating this mural “Why can’t they see us?”

I’m hoping to challenge all of us as a community.

When my family and I moved here,

I felt like I’m out of this planet.

Like all the time.

Unfortunately some did not make the effort to understand and learn where I come from.

What my culture is like.

Instead,

they gasped and looked at me strangely.

So here is a sweet reminder for you all to genuinely get to know one another with open mind and acceptance.

Cause hey!

One life cannot experience everything this life has to offer. .”

These are a few photographs of me volunteering to help make and finish Doaa Jamal‘s “Why can’t they see us?” Mural…
