The motion

That the Parliament congratulates the Springburn hospice on its new mural by Danny "EJEK" McDermott; notes that the work takes centre stage at the entrance of the ward at the Marie Curie Springburn hospice, and invokes Glaswegian graffiti style, as well as incorporating the yellow daffodil logo of Marie Curie; understands that the project took around 24 hours to complete, with the final mural officially unveiled to the public on 11 April 2024; further understands that Danny McDermott has created much of Glasgow’s most famous street art, including the mural of Marvel creator, Stan Lee, in the Gorbals, which, it believes, is one of the emblematic figures of urban art in the UK and around the world; considers that showcasing art has always featured in the hospice, but never before on this scale, and believes that the art captured the spirit of the hospice and the wonderful team, while also putting the iconic daffodil symbol at the heart of the design.
