Throughout The Colinton Tunnel project, Lubi Lykan, my life partner, soul mate and creative collaborator was by my side, keeping body and soul alive. She is an immensely talented and creative powerhouse, and has brought the full force of her passion, energy and joy to the tunnel.
I am eternally grateful for her input and her steely determination to help me get the job done.
Lubi’s portrait features as the most prominent fairy at the throat of the tunnel riding the magical unicorn.

This is us.

The tunnel has had a strong community aspect throughout the project, and Lubi Lykan Couture & Embroideryhas dealt effortlessly with hundreds of children between ages 3 to 83. Charmingly tying teams together, joining the dots and breathing fire on those who deserved it (including myself).

Today we acknowledge a debt.
Lubi was brought up in Slovakia, as many of you know. What you may not be aware of is that her mother Viera Bystricka , was one of the country’s top Choirmistress and of international renowned. Lubi sat at her side throughout her formative years. Through her, Viera’s values are imbedded in our tunnel walls.
Passion, solidarity, joy, love… we have tried our utmost to take you to a happy safe place.
The portrait I’ve painted is taken from a beautiful photos of Lubi’s mum in the late sixties, with fabulous bouffant hair and a glint in her eye.
She takes pride of place opposite her daughter welcoming you into the tunnel.

Pictured here nestled in the midst of Craig Robertson’s lettering at the start of the poem.
