In February 2026, Calico Arts commissioned muralist Eli Delbaere to create a permanent mural for Sydenham Library, designed in collaboration with the community through two of the library’s existing free workshop sessions. Eli joined Susan Rafique’s weekly drop-in session and the classes of Anna Arianova, Sydenham Library’s artist in residence, to lead participants through drawings and paintings exploring Sydenham’s wildlife and fairytale themes. Using a co-design technique called copylefting, each participant’s work was passed to another to develop further, with one drawing of books transforming into butterflies becoming the seed of an entire concept, completed by a second participant who added lettering drawn from medieval illuminated manuscripts. Eli developed two full designs from the workshop material, which were then painted by Sydenham residents and children from Home Park School. Library users voted on the final design, and Flight of Imagination was selected and painted on the wall.
