Critical Mass

‘Critical Mass’, by definition, addresses the size or amount required to maintain a movement or venture. Through mapping out the building’s elevations and studying its grid system, I incorporated the brutalist style construction and various textures of the surface when approaching the layout. The result was layered, fluctuating, totem-like shapes, reflecting the plethora of vibrant creative disciplines housed within. The downtown mural is a way to honor what Mainframe Studios stands for in the community. 

 

Under my direction and supervision, professional contractors completed the nearly four-month process of preparing the building's surfaces and applying color to the approximately 40,000 square feet of surface. Budget $150K. Completed in 2021.
