Ammonite Fossil Mural: NoCo Arts and Cultural District, Jeffersonville, IN - 2018
Jeffersonville's NoCo Arts and Cultural District is an amazingly colorful and creative space! The first mural in the area was the huge and iconic water tower painted by artist Wilfred Sieg, III. In 2018, The Public Arts Commission wanted to create a complimentary mural on an eyesore out-building close by. The arts commission painted it black and put out a call for proposals.
My design pulled inspiration from the fossils found at the Falls of the Ohio State Park just a few miles away. The water tower mural is surreal and incorporates saturated colors and detailed patterns. The finished ammonite fossil mural is a striking grayscale design that compliments without detracting from the neighboring masterpiece.

Blocks of Love
Part of "Project Uplift"
Artists: Jennie and Lukas DiBeneditto
Year: 2020
Location: Jeffersonville, Indiana
Clark Memorial Hospital​

​For our health care heroes at Clark Memorial Hospital:
Especially amidst a global pandemic, we wanted you to know that your community is thinking of you and that we are all so grateful for your love, care, and dedication.
So with the help of your community, we made this artwork to uplift your spirits and show that we care.
​
From far away, viewers will see a large purple heart with a beautiful gradient of colors radiating from the center. Up close, you can stop to read each handwritten note and feel the love represented by the hands of your community.
This mirrored pair of works was assembled from 160 pieces of wood, requiring 656 cuts. So that no two blocks of the same height are touching, a random layout of block heights was generated by a custom computer program.
Each of the 90 vitreous enameled tiles started as a piece of metal. Glass enamel powders were sifted onto the metal and fired in a 1450 °F kiln three or more times for the colors and shading. Then photographs and handwritten notes were digitized and converted to black and white graphics, printed with a specialized laser printer to make a decal, and fired one last time.

​
Compartmentalized Emotions; this project began with asking all the employees of Clark Memorial, what are the feelings and emotions you experience each day as you come to work and then go home to your family during a pandemic? Their words were constructed into an agamograph, a three-dimensional construct that when read from different angles, reveals the words and feelings of the healthcare workers. This group project involved all the artists at NAC combining the work a writer, mixed media artist, graphic designer, glass artist, woodworker, enameling artist, and painter. (Sarah Young, Tammy Burke, Phillip Collins, Lisa Maria Fowler, Greg Rush, Jennie DeBeneditto, Malliccaaii Green respectively).
