Mural with a hearty message

Manipal Hospital initiated a creative and powerful awareness campaign for World Heart Day with a captivating 3D Mural Art project across the city. This unique artwork, which only reveals its full image when viewed from a distance, features a vibrant red heart, symbolising the fight against unhealthy habits like smoking, alcohol addiction, and obesity.

The heart-shaped mural is being created in association with BTP & BMRCL. They aim to ignite discussions on health and lifestyle choices, encouraging the public to reflect on personal habits they need to “unchain” from for overall well-being. This creative initiative is led by two renowned artists: Baadal Nanjundaswamy, known for his impactful spot art installations, and Mukesh Kumar, a 3D art specialist from Haryana. The murals will be displayed at over 20 key locations, such as Prestige Tech Parks to public spaces like Cubbon Park and Church Street.
