P.S. I Love You Mosaic

In 2020, Art x Love was re-engaged by the Akron Area YMCA to create an interactive mural for the P.S. I Love You 5K Walk/Run. In the face of the pandemic, race organizers opted for a virtual event. Participants were given shirts with colors that corresponded to the P.S. I Love You logo. After completing their socially distant 5k, participants submitted pictures of themselves wearing their shirts. These images were combined with 2019 P.S. I Love You event photos, images of iconic Middlebury neighborhood buildings, and sponsor logos to create the P.S. I Love You mosaic. A video montage of the mosaic was generated for the “Art of Y” exhibition at Summit Artspace, celebrating the Akron Area YMCA’s 150 years of service to the community.
