From concept to wall. The team turned the artist’s concept into cut drawings, bought the materials, and managed the fabrication of the pieces and their installation at the school.
True to the artist. Silhouettes, color bands and geometric patterns that the artist took from historical photos and assembled like a puzzle. The cut drawings had to respect every shape.
