Thakers Restaurant Mural

painted as a conversation piece in a fast food Indian restaurant in Hounslow

Thakers Restaurant Mural by Sacredart Murals
The artwork here was painted to generate a chatty atmosphere in a new fast restaurant serving Indian/English hybrid food in Hounslow High Street. It's a busy area with bustling streets so the idea for this mural, thought up by the charismatic entrepreneur owner, brings iconic images from both Indian and English culture together in a busy scene. The second mural on the right was painted later once the restaurant was open for business, the work completed during the night when the restaurant closed after 11pm!
