Rise, at Danelle Plaza (detail)
latex paint on street signs
8' x 60'
2021
"Rise" is a fence mural comprised of over 120 street signs installed in this configuration especially for the Danelle Project at Danelle Plaza. The signs reflect the shifting colors of the sky from sunrise to sunset, left to right, east to west. Each sign is detailed with elements from the local urban desert landscape, connected to each other by powerlines and mirage reflections.
Originally commissioned by Tempe Public Art.
