Signature Unknown is a team of two artists: Scott Chasse (New York) and Kenley Darling (Maine). In their individual studio practices, they each consider folk art to be a big influence on what they make and in how they display their work. Their mural collaboration is an extension of this, referencing traditional patterns from the past: quilt squares, hex signs (Pennsylvania Dutch barn ornaments), mandalas & sacred geometry, and barn quilts. Their murals offer a new context in scale and presentation for familiar forms, combining old and new, familiar and unexpected, to create unique and inclusive works of art for the public arena. For the O+ mural, Signature Unknown created a pattern that included alternating X’s and O’s modifying a common circular pattern.
