SoDa ROW INTERACTIVE MURALS PROJECT
Submission deadline is Saturday, July 7, 2018, by 3:00 pm MST. Applications and finalized designs must be submitted to
arts@livedaybreak.com.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The SoDa Row Interactive Murals project is intended to create a unique permanent outdoor piece that will reflect the vision and feel of the community, and that will provide residents and visitors with an opportunity to interact with the art piece. The location that has been identified for the murals’ placement is an exterior cinder block wall facing west on Kestrel Rise Rd near the SoDa Row area of Daybreak. The wall is located between the eSpokes and Black Diamond Studio businesses located at 11277 Kestrel Rise Road, South Jordan, UT 84009. The wall features two cut-out spaces to be used. Each of these cut-out spaces is lit after dark by two in-ground lights (see photos on pages 6 & 7). This area is utilized by families within the Daybreak community and the piece will need to engage a wide range of the residential demographic.
For a tour of the selected location, please contact Karen Sewell at (801) 440-8193 or Anndalyn Hobbs at (805) 280-1998. Artists may explore the location on their own as well, as the site is a public space. Site photographs and dimensions are included on pages 6 and 7.
The project should feature an interactive mural inside of each cut-out. This is a popular and central urban location within the Daybreak neighborhood and it is visited by pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists. The cut-outs are visible from the adjacent sidewalk as well as Kestrel Rise Rd, which is open to vehicle traffic. The murals should be accessible to pedestrians and should be designed so that viewers can interact with and become part of the art itself, by taking photographs, videos, etc. For the committee’s inspiration for this project, see the websites listed on page 5 and 6.
As part of the LiveDAYBREAK Community Art Advisory Committee’s initiative to stir community interest in public art, we would like to feature the installation of this art piece as an event for LiveDAYBREAK’s annual Fizz Fest, taking place this year on August 10 & 11, 2018. We want residents to have a first-hand look at the installation process during the festival, in hopes of creating an appreciation for this piece as it becomes part of our community. The piece does not need to be completed during the festival, but we would like to see the installation process happening in real-time as the festival is occurring.

Invisible Paint Street Mural
PROJECT BACKGROUND
The Invisible Paint Street Mural project is intended to create a unique temporary outdoor piece that will reflect the vision and feel of the community. The location that has been identified for the mural’s placement is an outdoor public splash pad located adjacent to CupBop at 11259 Kestrel Rise Rd, South Jordan, UT 84009.
The project should feature an invisible paint street mural to be installed on the floor of the outdoor splash pad that is revealed when the installation becomes wet as community members utilize the splash pad for recreation. The artist must use Rainworks, a hydrophobic outdoor invisible paint product that dries clear so as to enhance the effect of the reveal when the paint becomes wet. The product must be applied to the splash pad through the use of stencils. Please see the websites listed on page 4 for additional information on the Rainworks paint.

One key element of the project is to allow residents to actively engage with the art piece. This could be accomplished in many ways. For example, the art could be climbable, walkable, or musical. There could be parts that move, lights displays, water features, computer interactions, etc.
