Brooke Brown Photo Gallery: Talking Walls 2021

by Tim Miner & Brooke Brown on November 4, 2021

After three years of the Talking Walls mural festival, Charlotte is adorned with an incredible collection of new murals across the city. Click here for a map of all Talking Walls murals created to date.

In late October, eight artists — a mixture of local and national creatives — painted new murals at the Metropolitan, Camp North End, Fat City Lofts, Mission Gathering Church and Ink Floyd.

While you may have seen the finished products online, we rarely get a peek at the artists at work. Explore the gallery below to see some of the people behind the paint from photographer Brooke Brown. Shown are Garrison Gist, Abel Jackson, Kevin Taylor, HNin Nie, Naji AlAli, Jen Hill and Bree and Robin Stallings.

PLEASE NOTE: Brown donated her services for this gallery. In her honor, Charlotte Is Creative is giving two $250 HUG micro-grants to local creatives this December.
