Joshua, a Minnesota resident, is a truly prolific muralist. Joshua Sarantitis has been creating monumental professional work in public spaces for over 20 years. His 40 commissioned works include glass installations and mosaic murals located regionally and abroad including San Francisco, Chicago, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Phoenix and Tucson. His ability to collaborate successfully with design professionals, arts administrators and community is rooted in a desire to find common language between our everyday lives and the arts. Joshua embraces using technology as a tool to aid in mastering media including slumped and fused glass, mosaic, plasma-cut steel, concrete, glass frit, ceramic toner on glass, ceramic tile and paint and fiber. He combines the desire for learning with the skilled execution of an accomplished technician.
This was one of Joshua’s first murals. It was done in conjunction with Precita Eyes. It was funded by P.G.&E., The Neighborhood Beautification Fund, and the Graffiti Clean Up Fund.
The San Francisco Mission District has been hosting a Carnaval Festival since 1978. There is a very elaborate parade, afterwards streets are blocked off and food and entertainment can be enjoyed to ones hearts’ content.
Gorgeous murals… such vivid colors and amazing images.
Why can’t we have murals like these here in Helsinki!? snif!
This best way to show art – for free.
Grey concrete walls are so boring.
SF rocks!
What a great mural. A very nice piece of art.
This art work is amazing. I would love to see more stuff like this is cities in the UK rather than the usual vandal type stuff.

Wow! This is certainly not an overnight “tag” job! Amazing piece – how long did it take to do this, any idea?
This is so cheerful! It looks huge.
Great mural.
Great colors!
Wow! This shouts out fiesta! The colors are wonderful!
Very cool and so cheerful!
I love this mural (except for the left-handed flute player)—- reminds me of Hieronymus Bosch. This work convinced me of his incredible ability, and nothing he has done since then has changed my mind.
