Friends, family, work, places and memories all takes shape in Alison's life mural.

Alison, from Merthyr, tells about her work with the Mount View Mural project, and how it reflects the pattern of her own life in "...the importance of everyone working together to bring the different stages of a community project together.

"How this mirrors the different stages of my life, starting off in one direction and through various people and events, moving into another," she adds.

"This is a metaphor for how I feel about life - friends, family, work, places and memories."
