Facebook AiR Mural

In 2021, my college friends and I founded Little Worm Press to create “Held,” a large-scale mural for Facebook’s San Francisco office. Under the mentorship of Los Angeles-based artist Gabriela Sanchez, we explored the concept of home, drawing on personal memories, relationships, and the passage of time. Using paint, photography, and 3D wood elements, we combined our individual styles into a cohesive mixed-media collage that extends beyond the wall, integrating with the surrounding architecture and ceiling rafters.

Facebook commissioned the project through its Open Arts Artist in Residence program, which later became Meta Open Arts before the department was discontinued. This opportunity allowed us to collaborate, experiment, and transform our shared experiences into a lasting public artwork.
