The East Van Cross is a symbol formed by the words East and Van written. Referencing the city’s Eastern half, traditionally less wealthy and harder-edged East Vancouver, now part of a renaissance becoming the artistic and cultural center.
The iconic cross figure dates all the way back to the 1950s. Ken Lum, the artist who designed the monument pictured above, believes that that it originally reflected the large Catholic population in East Van at the time.
The cross itself is in a derelict unloved urban landscape, through Anja Jane's illustrative style of collage you can see the representation of East Van residential streets bursting with with quintessential Vancouver cherry blossom and greenery.
Beautiful print on thick paper. Came very quickly after ordering! My second purchase and would purchase again!

Being back in NZ I miss Vancouver hard. Lovely to have a daily reminder of my time spent in this amazing city and especially the neighbourhood of East Van where I called home for 2 years.
Thank you for your beautiful art and the wonderful memories and joy it brings me xx
