Anna Entrambasaguas’s “Off the Rails” mural. Have you ever seen a splash of color explode on a Dublin street? This vibrant mural, part of the Dublin Canvas project, sits on Railway Street. It blossomed from a street art jam in October 2019. The event, also called “Off the Rails,” transformed a hoarding around Mary’s Mansions. Eighteen artists, armed with a Halloween palette, painted for over six hours. They showcased their skills to a delighted crowd. The Off the Rails jam was the first of its kind in North Dublin. It brought together the community and artists. The mural, by Anna Entrambasaguas, remained on display until January 2020. Though the temporary hoarding is gone, the spirit of “Off the Rails” continues. Dublin Canvas keeps that energy alive, popping up on street cabinets across the city. The “Off the Rails” jam was a testament to Ireland’s youthful arts culture. It showcased the power of art to transform urban spaces and connect people.
