RISE ABOVE
Rise Above
Inglewood, California
Rise Above is a monumental mural, commissioned for a supportive housing community developed by Linc Housing. Wrapping a prominent corner tower, the artwork layers hands reaching skyward with blooming florals and radiant skies, symbolizing hope, unity, and new beginnings. By blending figurative gestures with natural elements, the piece embodies the resilience and aspirations of the residents it was created to serve.
The composition anchors the property with a landmark presence, visible both day and night thanks to its integrated lighting design. This dual experience—paint by day, illumination by night—extends the artwork’s impact into the public realm, ensuring it remains an active part of the neighborhood’s identity.
Rise Above demonstrates how large-scale public art can transform affordable housing into a beacon of pride and belonging. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the project enhances visibility, elevates property value, and communicates the developer’s investment in community well-being. It stands as proof that thoughtful art integration can enrich urban environments while strengthening the social and cultural fabric of a city.
