Swiss-American artist Mona Caron has been experimenting with pictorial art for more than 20 years. She currently lives in San Francisco, the city that inspired her and where she was born as a muralist, influenced in her first works by the beauty of the streets of this city.
Those same murals would lead her imagination to create a series of works with which she would get to know different parts of the world. Her creation of the series "Weeds", which means "herbs", something very common and unnoticed in our daily lives, would create the impressive and beautiful works of Mona Caron in this series.
So simple but with a unique and powerful message that has now come to Redwood City. Two murals located at 707 Bradford St. in Redwood City the apartment complex that will be affordable senior housing with 117 units.
The mural contains a weed that is sourced not only from the Bay Area, but also just outside this facility which creates a greater meaning behind the inspiration.
Caron said: "It's a very discreet plant, it's a plant that doesn't attract a lot of attention. There wasn't much excitement when I announced that I wanted to paint a Salicornia. But I love the challenge of taking a not very special plant and making it great to bring out the beauty that all of nature has?
This project of Mona Caron is expected to be finished by the end of June or early July and hopes that it conveys a special message that is constantly repeated everywhere.
What I hope to do is to instill a sense of questioning, it's like precisely portraying things that you wouldn't see as interesting and try to make it unbelievable.?
