Ojo Akinlana: Deeply Rooted

“Deeply Rooted” was my first time leading other artists in order to execute a mural. Half of the team were not painters, so there were a lot of “firsts” on this project. We were given six weeks to cover about 16,400 square feet of space on the pillars and lintels that hold up Claiborne bridge. . If y’all are ever in New Orleans, Louisiana, come check out “Deeply Rooted” located under the Claiborne Bridge on St. Louis and Claiborne!
