This mural imagines a girl exploring microscopic life, an axolotl, a tardigrade, and single-cell forms. I used bright gradients to feel like energy under a microscope and treated it the same way as my sculptures: fast, instinctive, and alive. Created for a children’s science museum, it’s an eruption of color meant to spark curiosity and encourage kids to explore their own creativity.
