The Gorman's Elevator
Mural Project
Mrs. Gorman felt as though her elevator
needed elevated.
Vision
Mrs. Gorman
provided me this reference photo.
The project started with this image, a point of reference. It was an image she felt drawn to and wanted me to expand on this concept in my own personal style.
After gaining an understanding of her ideas,
I also explored more about her.
As I was in the Gorman's home,
I was able to recognize the kind of art they liked.
From that standpoint,
I was able to design an experience she loved.
Between Worlds
With the space being an elevator, I wanted to include the
motion of traveling
upward and downward
in the experience.
The Gormans are rock music lovers,
specifically Pink Floyd fans,
so I incorporated the lyrics:
"swimming in a fish bowl"
as part of it.
