In summer 2013, Jonathan Wakuda Fischer debuted an original mural on the iconic KEXP building of Seattle.
“While the design and logistical planning took weeks stretched over many months, the actual painting only required six days. There were a couple rainouts at the end of the Summer, of course. The color scheme was limited based on the KEXP swatch and a monochromatic palette. When I’m designing murals, I’ve learned that a little goes a surprisingly long way. That said, it was still 10 gallons of latex paint and over a dozen spray cans.
There are some great artists doing work in this city and and we need more large scale public art. I’m always looking to do new murals and welcome conversation with anyone who can provide a location. It’s striking to see before and after images of the building – I’m happy to say it’s a better representation of what the station means to Seattle.”
