A school of fish appears to burst through the wall in Escape, an anamorphic mural designed to reveal its illusion from a particular viewpoint along Cherry Street. The playful image floats over a colorful field of student-designed quatrefoil patterns.

About the Project
Created during the Wyomissing Area Summer STEAM Academy, the project began with students studying the existing Cherry Street murals and considering how viewers move through the narrow corridor. The students developed individual quatrefoil patterns based on their own interests, then combined them with the illusion of fish escaping through an opening in the wall.
