From grey to glowing colours: XXL painting project in Eggolsheim

07/25/2024 |

Railway underpasses tend to be plain, practical and concrete grey. But since July 2024, the walls of the underpass at the railway station in Eggolsheim have shone out in sunny yellow and warm shades of red! In organic, chessboard patterns – like in a retro computer game. A fantastic painting action that has filled this urban space and turned a functional corner into an eye-catching art installation. This masterpiece has been created by students from the Fachoberschule Fränkische Schweiz, a local college in Eggolsheim. What paint have they used? SOLO GOYA Triton Acrylic – this paint is a must-have for art installations on a grand scale.

The project was undertaken by upper school students in Year 11 over a relatively long period. What you can see on the photos is just the beginning. Bit by bit, various living environments are to be painted. Always by a Year 11 class from Fachoberschule Fränkische Schweiz.

Paint for big art? SOLO GOYA Triton Acrylic

The railway station underpass is an exceptionally long and big art canvas. Perfect for SOLO GOYA Triton Acrylic. The acrylic paint goes a long way and can be applied with a paintbrush or a paint roller. The brilliant colours and coverage of this paint make sure that the students’ creative work really pops. Particularly when it comes to designing large areas and public-space painting projects, it is crucial that the colours are not only intense in appearance, but are also very durable. SOLO GOYA Triton Acrylic paints meet these requirements perfectly and transform the station underpass into a vibrant scene. Incidentally, SOLO GOYA Triton Acrylic is produced by KREUL in Hallerndorf, just a few kilometres away from Eggolsheim. Very much a local art affair!
