Alumna reveals Loughborough town centre mural installation

Florence “Flo” Sargent (BA Textile Design 2021) was commissioned in her final year at Loughborough to produce a mural for Luxurio Future Generations and McAleer & Rushe.

The mural “Future Generations” is displayed in Loughborough town centre. The alumna’s installation features several iconic Loughborough features such as the River Soar, Carillion Tower, and the Loughborough University athletics track. 

The alumna said: 

"Last spring, I teamed up with Luxurio Future Generations and McAleer & Rushe to create a mural for their latest student accommodation development in Loughborough town centre. 

The playful and saturated mural is digitally printed on vinyl and set in two wall panels of 5x10 metres each. The aim of the work is to energise passers-by and bring colour to the community. The artwork illustrates diverse community of Loughborough  dancing and socialising amongst locally found florals and key markers of the town's rich cultural history." 

Flo is now studying for an MA in Textile Design at the Royal College of Art.
