FHN + Jahru + Jóvenes Artistas

4 Madison Place, Annapolis, MD

The Presidents Hill Mural Project was a collaboration with Jóvenes Artistas, a local after school arts program serving kids from underserved communities. In this project, located in the Presidents Hill neighborhood of Annapolis, we painted a mural that combines American History (portraits of James Madison, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln), geometry, and a stencil application. Every geometric element in this painting is divisible by a 24” triangle cut out of a single piece of cardboard stencil, and 4 shades of grey spray paint. By manipulating the triangle positions and the 4 tonal values of paint, we created a 3-D effect with the background pattern to contrast the historical subject matter. Hence, Future History Now.
