Patterson Park Neighborhood Association and Southeast CDC partnered with Graham Projects to engineer, design, and install traffic calming and pavement art to improve pedestrian safety at the intersection of Fayette Street and Luzerne Avenue in East Baltimore. Graham Projects collaborated with artist Nichol Buchholz of Sol Raya Public Space to lead a community-based design process and install the street mural. Aquila Constellation spreads its celestial wings across the intersection through bright yellow stars connected by turquoise lines alongside orange lines evoking mythological constellations, all set amidst an indigo blue sky gradient filling the bump outs.
