They Drift + KSRA
ABOUT THE MURAL:
Painted during the inaugural festival in 2017, this mural location is also where a large group of the participating artists watched the Great American Solar Eclipse on August 21st. This wall was generously donated by Abbott Properties, who were our main sponsor for this inaugural year of the festival - thank you to Matt Abbott for believing in the vision and continuing to support the Arts in Kansas City! Find this mural on the North side of the building at 1508 Holmes, just off Truman Road outside of Downtown Kansas City.
ABOUT THE ARTISTS:
"Carlos Aguilar and Ksra are two Seattle based artists that have been collaborating for many years through their mural painting and public art activities across the country. As Carlos Aguilar retrained his focus on exploring the potential of acrylic paintings, Ksra has been actively pursuing her childhood passion for sculpting and mold making. In 2012 Ksra and Carlos released their first collaborative toy for “It Figures- a toy art show” which sold out on opening night. Inspired by that success and seeing the infinite creative potential, they have continued to push their collaboration creating exquisite sculptural menageries utilizing visual themes based on their vibrant collaborative paintings. Their work touches on the feeling of impermanence and our need for soulful comradery." - Wescover.com
