“Woodstock Bass” and “Farmer’s Market” bring references to local outdoor culture and community life to the City Center East Parking Deck.
A public mural becomes part of a place people share. Brianna works with project partners to create artwork that feels at home and gives people in the community a reason to look again.
The team’s local knowledge adds to Brianna’s research into the site and its surroundings. A familiar activity or an overlooked detail can become the starting point for a composition, giving local references a new expression through the mural.
Brianna presents the proposed artwork in a mockup so the team can see how it would sit within its surroundings. There’s room to discuss what resonates and what needs adjusting, with feedback informing the finished design.
Brianna works through surface preparation and equipment access with the site team, arranging the painting schedule around nearby activity. Larger murals may involve lifts and additional painters, planned according to the demands of the location.
Documentation during painting gives project partners a way to share the work as it develops. Brianna also brings ideas for celebrating its completion, creating opportunities for the community to meet the artist and connect with the artwork’s story.
