2019 - Midwest Suprematism
(Superior Carpet Installation Mural)
130ft x 22ft
The design of this mural is inspired by geometric Barn Quilts, Barn Architecture, as well as prairie-scapes that Smith grew up seeing around the countryside in Indiana. Farming is an essential element of what makes Midwestern U.S. society what it is today. A modernized abstract mural with a subtle nod to Indiana's Agricultural past seemed right up the client’s alley. Smith sent the client the design, and after two long and scorching weekends up and down on the lift, the mural was installed. (With the help of a small team: his girlfriend, two of Nick’s buddies, and his father) Big thank you as well to the Superior Carpet Installation team for believing in Smith’s vision for the wall and commissioning the work.
