Layered mural extends around 3 walls of the Evergreen Ballroom for a total of 190' in length. The channel in the ceiling shows where the ballroom can be divided into 2 rooms by a sliding portable wall.
Fourteen-foot-tall walls allow for a dramatic mural composition as it wraps around a corner.

"From Earth To Spirit”  

The elegance of the night is in full bloom as men in tuxedos and women in evening gowns glide gracefully around the floor to the most beautiful music ever composed. Occasionally, the atmosphere is supercharged by a spicy Latin number, as the energy in the room shifts into a higher gear. Dramatically, the refined interior of the ballroom is in direct contrast to its industrial warehouse exterior.

The massive mural of the Evergreen Ballroom in Central Point, Oregon is 14’ tall and 190’ long, extending around three walls. Mirrors at both ends of the main room expand the perception of space. Since the room can be divided into two smaller ballrooms with a moveable wall, I had to design the mural for three different compositions. Still, I felt compelled to give it only one title.

Detail shows how the mural flows over the 8' tall mirrors.
