MURAL FOR THE RHODE ISLAND PHILHARMONIC MUSIC SCHOOL

In January 2025, I produced a design for a mural in the Music School atrium to welcome visitors, which was selected out of a pool of 15 submissions in the RISD Class “The Craft of Making Murals”. The client was looking for a welcome mural which showcased the diverse range of musicians within the orchestra and school, the school’s connection with the community, as well as the three venues at which the orchestra performs.

I revised the design based on client specifications and went on to install the mural with the help of fellow artists in the class. Check out RISD’s article about the process!

Initial mock-up. This design was revised to include a more diverse range of musicians outside of the traditional orchestra (e.g. electric guitarist, vocalist, Wampanoag water drummer, etc.). The colors were also adjusted to match the existing paint colors in the building.
