Outdoor Utility Boxes As Art

A while back I posted about the large utility boxes situated on street corners. Normally we don't even notice these boxes but they have been slowly turning into art installations. Here are a few more we've spotted around the neighbourhood. Thanks to Grace, who has also been keeping an eye out for them and has been sending me photos as well.  Enjoy!

Here is an article I found online about the program.

 Outside the Box


The Outside the Box program provides an opportunity for local artists to create works of art on traffic signal boxes across Toronto. Since 2013, over 350 boxes have been hand-painted by local artists, or wrapped featuring designs by local graphic artists, and transformed into extraordinary works of art. Artists and graphic designers applying to this program are encouraged to consider the context of the local area and the city as a whole. Art calls for hand-painted boxes, and graphic designs for wrapped boxes, are issued separately.
