Hold Fast Hope by British artist duo Laura Perrett and Nik Ellis aka SNIK @snikarts at 15 Ship Row, Aberdeen, Scotland in April 2018 as part of @nuartaberdeen festival. Photos taken April 2025.

"Titled ‘hold fast hope’ the piece is reminder that the small things in life can have a big effect on you 🙏🏻" @snikarts April 15, 2018

"We drilled loads of details on this one, from colouring all the birds, to the snapped rope at the bottom of her leg, to the little bird sat on the ledge to the left. A super tricky piece to do with stencils, and the Scottish weather, but a result we are happy with." @snikarts April 23, 2018

"They create large scale stencil pieces, often depicting females caught in a moment of extreme movement. The piece in Aberdeen is called 'Hold Fast Hope' and features a girl being dragged into the air by small birds using a piece of rope. To hold fast is to keep strong or to hold on during stormy times. A sailing term, its a nice reference to the harbour location of their mural. Although they use stencils to lay out their pieces they also free hand and add into each piece which gives their work its unique look." aberdeeninspired.com/murals/snik-2018
