Painting My Hometown
This was a project completed for Main Street Kent with the help of Troppus Projects. You can visit them in person downtown Kent, OH through Burbick Way
"Artist Maya Culley painted a gorgeous mural in the alleyway between the Woodsy’s and Skullz Salon buildings. Culley’s concept was to combine some of her favorite aspects of Kent, a mixture of city and nature. Visuals of figures and geometric shapes were used to represent the city, while plants such as the milkweed flower found in the Kent bog were used to represent nature. She also used the bog as inspiration for the abstract images on the doorways. Culley also focused on the theme of “new Kent vs. old Kent”. She referenced Kent’s rich history with the image of Marvin Kent while adding modern colors and organic shapes to relate to the current growth of the city."
