COLORFUL SILOS BY HILDA PALAFOX IN DOWNTOWN FORT SMITH

Public Art Event
Client:  UNEXPECTED
Location: Downtown Fort Smith, North West Arkansas

Artists: Hilda Palafox

Service: Concept, development and Production

Justkids invited Hilda Palafox to create a ˙360 mural leading up to the new development of a public gathering space for the community on the west side of downtown Fort Smith: the emerging Bakery District.

The Mexico City based artist, also known as Poni, completed a two-part mural on the Bakery Silos, bringing a gentle femininity in her compositional balance of forms and colors. Poni’s work brings a subtle suggestions of sensible expressions and emotions held together by light bodies and romantic arrangements of forms.
