HOME: A Mural Series by Michael Che Romero
Vivache Designs

For me, the notion of Spokane being my home has always been a mixed feeling – a place of breathtaking natural beauty and nostalgia, layered with deep shadows. It is where I was nearly murdered as a teen. Where I acted out from a pain I could not name. Where I yearned for belonging.
So, when I was approached by Vicki Carter, Executive Director at the Spokane Conservation District, to manifest a mural gallery in my hometown, I recognized the rare opportunity:
Not just to envision and paint –
But to transform.
To reclaim.

In creating my Home mural series, I found something deeper than art – I found healing and community. Nature has always been my refuge. This series celebrates our connection to the land, to one another, and to the divine. It honors the abundance of the earth, those who nurture it, and the truth that everyone has a right to food, as food is a shared experience that unites us all.
We spent nearly a year in discussion and negotiation, and once the contract was signed, the timeline was ambitious and extremely challenging:
🎨 45 days to design and paint 2,800 square feet of murals. It is a marvel that we completed the mission.

I spent over 150 hours in the Vivache Designs’ studio, pouring two weeks into intense ideation—days that bled into nights, and dreams that turned into design.

The result?
My most audacious work to date:
A fusion of Renaissance techniques, surrealism, contemporary spray paint, bold color, and the spirit of Diego Rivera.

A soul journey etched across walls.

I arrived in Spokane on February 26th and worked tirelessly until my departure on April 1st. The gallery didn’t just become my workspace – it became my home.

Because of the intense timeline, I called on local artists for support in fabricating the work, and something beautiful happened. I gained a new group of collaborators in Spokane. I painted alongside volunteer high school students from Lewis & Clark (my alma mater) and Mt. Spokane. My grandfather’s hands came alive with my beloved art teacher . I even reunited with my 6th-grade teacher and lifelong influence, Mr. McBride.

At Vivache Designs, we don’t just paint murals—
We facilitate human-focused experiences for the community and for our artists who work with us.
We are stewards of storytelling.
We craft placemakers.
We shape culture.
We honor spirit through art that uplifts and unites.
We are the evangelists for communities.
We take pride in hiring artists to support our big ideas, for together we are greater.

Every brushstroke was made by a community of hands – and these hands, connected to the land, are the heart of Home.
Deep love to and the Spokane Conservation District for housing this series and building a space I align with so deeply.

And none of this would exist without the leadership, love, and unwavering loyalty of my wife and business partner, Seema Mishra. She is the pulse behind the brush.

Massive gratitude to the brilliant artists who supported me on the journey:

Our Artist in Residency at the BLVD Las Vegas Strip has come to an end.

Reimagining highway and freeway pillars as towering trees and elements of nature is an audacious act of creativity-a poetic gesture that seeks to bridge the divide between the rigid concrete jungle and the organic rhythms of the natural world. These transformations turn the monotonous corridors of our cities into living landscapes, suggesting a forest where there is only shadow, a green sanctuary amidst the gray of asphalt and steel.

These painted pillars transcend mere art; they symbolize hope and imagination, challenging urban spaces to be more than functional but beautiful and harmonious. For the younger generation, they become portals to a new way of seeing, inviting a sense of wonder: What if our cities could breathe, grow, and coexist with nature?

This vision is not just aesthetic; it's a call to reimagine our relationship with the environment, blending urban life with sustainability. These murals blur the line between the natural and the built, reminding us of the enduring beauty that once thrived where our cities now rise.

By transforming these pillars, we plant seeds of curiosity and respect in the minds of the next generation, suggesting that even in the unlikeliest places, life can emerge. It's a powerful metaphor that our cities, like these pillars, can grow beyond their foundations, embracing a future where creativity, nature, and humanity are woven together in a dynamic, living tapestry.

In the heart of bustling cities and serene towns lies an undercurrent of creativity that binds communities and ignites the collective imagination-public art. From striking murals that stretch across city blocks to sculptures that stand as silent sentinels in parks, public art is more than a visual treat; it's a vital dialogue between the artist and humanity, a reflection of our collective joys, struggles, and aspirations.

Public art serves as a universal language, transcending cultural and linguistic barriers to speak directly to the human spirit. It has the unique power to transform ordinary spaces into places of wonder, prompting passersby to pause, reflect, and connect. These artworks become landmarks not just for their aesthetic appeal but for their ability to resonate on a deeply personal level, evoking memories, emotions, and thoughts.

Moreover, public art is democratic in nature, accessible to all regardless of socioeconomic status. It democratizes the experience of art, making it part of daily life rather than something confined to the elite spaces of galleries and museums. This accessibility fosters a sense of communal ownership and pride, strengthening the bond between individuals and their environment.

Beyond its role in beautifying spaces, public art is a catalyst for social change. It can challenge societal norms, highlight pressing issues, and celebrate cultural diversity, encouraging dialogue and understanding among diverse groups. In times of social unrest, public art has often served as a peaceful yet powerful medium for expressing collective sentiments and advocating for change.

Furthermore, public art contributes to the psychological well-being of communities. Studies have shown that engaging with art can significantly reduce stress and promote mental health. In urban landscapes, where nature may be scarce, public art offers a respite for the soul, enriching the urban experience with moments of beauty and inspiration.

Public art is an essential thread in the fabric of society, weaving together the diverse stories and voices of humanity. It stands as a testament to our capacity for creativity and connection, reminding us of our shared humanity and the transformative power of art in public life. Through public art, we not only beautify our environments but also deepen our understanding of ourselves and each other, fostering a world more connected, empathetic, and vibrant.

Art districts stand as vibrant testimonies to the transformative power of public art, serving not only as cultural hubs but also as engines for social impact and community revitalization. These dynamic areas, woven into the fabric of cities worldwide, act as focal points where creativity meets community, and public art becomes a force for social dialogue, economic rejuvenation, and cultural identity.

Public art in these districts does more than beautify; it communicates, challenges, and connects. It turns public spaces into arenas for expression, reflection, and engagement, inviting everyone to experience art's transformative power. Through murals, sculptures, and installations, public art makes culture accessible, dismantles barriers to the arts, and reflects the community's diversity and history.

The social impact of art districts is profound. They become platforms for underrepresented voices, offering artists of all backgrounds a space to showcase their work and stories. This visibility fosters inclusivity and understanding, breaking down cultural and societal barriers. Moreover, public art initiatives often engage local communities in the creative process, fostering a sense of ownership and pride that strengthens social bonds.

Economically, art districts attract tourists and stimulate local businesses, turning once-neglected areas into thriving destinations. The presence of art increases foot traffic, which benefits cafes, shops, and galleries, creating a vibrant ecosystem where culture and commerce flourish together. This economic uplift, in turn, can lead to greater investment in public services and infrastructure, enhancing quality of life for residents.

Furthermore, art districts serve as living laboratories for urban renewal, showcasing how art can transform spaces and perceptions. They prove that when cities invest in art, they invest in their future, promoting sustainability, innovation, and community well-being.

Art districts embody the belief that art is essential for a healthy society. They remind us that public art is not just an aesthetic addition but a vital tool for cultural reflection, social cohesion, and urban vitality. As we continue to navigate the complexities of modern life, the role of art districts in shaping vibrant, inclusive, and engaged communities has never been more important.
