The impressive artwork features striking yellow lettering which says ‘I LOVE MCR VICTORIA’ on a dark background and dotted with Manchester bees.
The artist of the stunning piece is Dez who is also known as LoveArtPix and is well known as both a creative and a campaigner to break the stigma around both mental illness and autism.
The vivid piece accompanies his earlier work, which appears on the same footbridge and sees a colourful piece including popular buildings from across the city centre.
Chris Jackson, regional director for Northern, who manage the station on behalf of Network Rail, said:
“This amazing piece of art is a wonderful final addition to the passenger bridge interior and something I know our passengers will enjoy seeing as they travel through the station.
Dez added: “Manchester is a cosmopolitan, international city and this side of the overbridge is the first thing you see when you get off the train and head up the stairs to exit the station into its heart.
“I want to thank Northern yet again for trusting my talent as an artist to create a unique image for our proud city.
