The mural on a 30 metre long, 3 metre high wall on Tariff Street was created by Parisian artist Florence Blanchard (also known as ema). http://www.manchestersfinest.com/manchester/parisian-artist-paints-mural-on-tariff-street/ The piece, in blues and green, that reflect the waterside location, has a camouflage background with an abstract design on top. It was created over three days in 2013 using spray paints, emulsion and gold paint. The artwork was expected be in place until 31 March 2014, but more than a year later it is still here. See photographs of it under construction on the artist's blog: http://florenceblanchard.com/2013/12/09/manchester/
