GEE HORTON STATEMENT:

Creating murals is more than painting on walls; it's about transforming neighborhoods into vibrant canvases that resonate with the pulse of the community. Ushering in a transition where neglected spaces become focal points of beauty and inspiration.

In this project Gee Horton and Chroma Projects aim to capture the essence of the human experience within these transformations. It's about celebrating diversity, resilience, and the stories that bind us together. Along Vine Street these artworks breathe life into overlooked places, forging connections and sparking dialogue among neighbors.

In this process, I see murals as powerful tools for community empowerment. They foster a sense of pride and ownership, inviting residents to reimagine their surroundings and take an active role in shaping their shared environment.

Through murals, these drawings transcend paper to become catalysts for change in neighborhoods and communiNes.

The process is more than replication; it's a dialogue between artistic voice and the spaces they inhabit.It'sabouthonoringhistoryandembracingthepresent. Inturningthesedrawingsinto murals, we invite viewers to engage with stories of transition—of growth, struggle, and triumph—that resonate across cultural boundaries.

These murals breathe new life into urban landscapes, sparking conversations and empowering communities to reclaim their narratives.

They serve as reminders of the strength found in diversity and the power of art to foster empathy and connection.
