Walks of Life is bold mural that explores the themes of history, culture, and sport through a series of faceless, symbolic figures, each representing a part of our St. Kitts and Nevis identity. The name came naturally because of where the mural is located: one of the busiest foot-traffic areas in town, a real-life crossroad where people from all directions and all walks of life pass by every day. It’s not a place you stop at, it’s one you pass through, making it the perfect place to paint something that reflects us as a people: grounded in our roots, shaped by our past, yet always moving forward.

​The Salt Picker at the edge of the pond and the Calypsonian, the witty voice of the people, embody the connection to our past, while the Painter creatively captures our legacy through self-expression. The Cane Cutter stands firm in the memory of our roots, shaping the foundation of our nation, and the Masquerader dances to the rhythm of tradition and joy. Finally, the Sprinter, who has carried the federation’s name and pride across the finish line, inspires us to keep moving forward. Together, they not only reflect our past and present but also embody the spirit that keeps us moving into the future.
