This Basketball Court artwork was a collaboration with Project In The Paint, an exciting transformation of what was once an under-used outdoor public basketball court at Frank Whitmore Green, off Viaduct Road, in Chelmsford, Essex.

Inspired by the simple immediacy, energy and vibrancy of Matisse’s cutouts, Molly’s design is striking in its setting, paying tribute to the court’s organic and natural setting whilst acknowledging the sacred geometry of a basketball court.

The installation of this project was delivered by Gareth Roberts and an incredible team of volunteer and assistant painters. Crowdfunded and supported by a micro-grant from the Essex County Council Community Initiative Fund.

A true joy of a transformation!
