mural cube Title:
Alejandro “Mono” González & Adam Hernandez Mural Cube
Date of Completion:
October 2025
Mural Location:
Dublin Library, 75 N High St, Dublin, OH 43017
Artist Statement:
This mural cube was created through a collaboration between world-renowned Chilean artist, Alejandro “Mono” González and Central Ohio-based artist, Adam Hernandez through an artist residency facilitated by the Dublin Arts Council. The mural’s vibrant color is a celebration of Riverside Crossing Park as a vital public space that connects the community to nature. Features include the blue heron, native to Scioto River, trees, the sun, and a rainbow. Together, the artists sketched the composition onto the cube and then invited the community to participate in painting the mural over the course of three days. The community-based project allowed the artists to exchange ideas and techniques in real time while inviting the public to paint alongside them. As a temporary, site-specific public art project, the mural came to life through play, exchange, and connection between people and place.
The mural cube was originally on view at Riverside Crossing Park from October 12-28, 2025. It is on temporary loan with the Columbus Metropolitan Library Dublin Branch from October 28, 2025 through April 2026.
