CPED VINYL MURAL, 2025

The vinyl mural will be a two sided visual representation of the complexity of what Minneapolis “used to be” juxtaposed by an imagined version of what Minneapolis is “going to be” in 2075 (50 years into the future).

My approach and creative inquiry has focused on the following key factors/components which include; the specific spatial considerations and the inside/out the location of the mural, and the translucent qualities of the printed vinyl murals throughout the building.

It will be installed on the third floor of the Minneapolis Public Service Building on a glass wall that separates public space and nonpublic office space. The glass wall is both a physical divide and an opportunity to be a visual bridge between a city department and the public whom the city is accountable to serving.
