5th Street Arcades

5th Street Arcades needed a mural that could engage passersby and bring people inside, so Mac created Kaleidoscope Garden as an interactive painting with colors and shapes with shift with changes in light and perspective. It is an iconic part of 5th Street Arcades, and a frequent inspiration for selfies and children playing. Business has boomed at 5th Street Arcades since Kaleidoscope Garden was installed in 2016. If you visit it, take a selfie, follow @artxlovellc (Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, or LinkedIn), post the picture and tag #kaleidoscopegarden you will automatically entered for a chance to win one of Mac’s Kaleidoscope Bloom paintings.

Believeland

Cleveland's Historic Warehouse and Flats Districts were connected by a chalkboard wall that had been created 13 years earlier to cover graffiti, but had since been neglected and vandalized. Seeing this as an opportunity to redefine the neighborhood and create a positive experience for visitors, I organized a Chalk It Up event with some colleagues and created the large scale murals that have since redefined the area as "Believeland." This work has been embraced by everyone, radically shifting the way people view the neighborhood, Clevelanders, and Cleveland itself. Based on this initial murals, Nike selected the site for its Together campaign, the return of Lebron James to the Cleveland Cavaliers. They brought us back to create Believeland II for the occasion. We returned for Believeland III the following year.
