Day Dreamer

The 51 Biltmore Public Art Project

Asheville,NC.

 

On the side of the Aloft Hotel (corner of Lexington & Aston), artists Alex Irvine and Ian Wilkinson teamed up to create a stylized mural using painted surface and ceramic tile that reflects both the hotel's modern architecture and nearby historic terracotta buildings. The mural features a woman daydreamer looking over downtown Asheville. In the background, an inverted art deco horseshoe pattern references the historic location of Asheville’s farrier trade. The project is part of the City’s Percent for Art Program.
