Project Description

Artist Robert Delgado will design and paint a mural on a 5’ h x 12’ w wall in the renovated Woodcrest Library. He engaged the Woodcrest community with a “Show and Tell” presentation of his work at the Library’s grand opening and photographed youth in the audience. He will use those images to design a dynamic composition of familiar faces from the community. According to Delgado, his photographic images are “broken down into line drawings and juxtaposed and superimposed so that the design becomes a thoughtful puzzle that provokes imagination and creativity in the viewer.” The project is schedule to be completed in 2010.
