Neon Sky is a multi-layered, hand-painted mural featuring a brightly patterned modern drawing of prairie skyscapes. Artist Victoria Wiercinski is inspired by the presence of nature in Edmontonian’s daily lives, while acknowledging that bitter winter days often force us inside. Her artwork interacts with the idea of the pool as a year-round lake and provides a sky. The painting evokes the expansive outdoors, sunsets, and the big skies of summer. Her intent is to transport swimmers of all ages to the outside realm through her trademark swirling, contrasting, abstract patterns.

The artwork design was determined by imagery derived through a community workshop in 2016.
