The Great Sense of Passing Through

Artist

Mario Miguel Echevarria

Year

2014

Location

Nix Office Building, 1745 Hoffman Mill Rd

Description

Echevarria created a painted mural that covers the walls and ceiling of the vestibule in the Nix Office Building. The mural is a realistic interpretation of a specific vantage point from Mahoney Park at Bobcat Ridge Natural Area. The mural is laid out to correspond with the site’s actual north/south orientation, so the viewer gets the impression of being at the park.

Echevarria painted the landscape on canvas using acrylic paint in his studio. The painted canvas was applied to the walls afterward. The sky was painted directly onto the drywall.
