MusicALLY

A holographic painting commissioned for Stark State College’s new campus in Akron, Ohio. ArtsNOW and the Ohio Arts Council were seeking local artist’s work to display in the student’s common areas. MusicALLY was submitted and selected by the Ohio Percent for Art Committee.

MusicALLY was inspired by live audio recordings and frequencies in nature. The concept for the painting was developed for a residential commission, but had to be sidelined to accommodate a new interior design and color scheme. My submission to the Ohio Percent for Art Committee was of the underpainting. MusicALLY had to be recreated from scratch, since the original work was later painted. This piece is the first and only holographic “underpainting” Mac Love has exhibited.
