Whale Sculpture Gets Fresh New Art | Salt Lake City News
Description
Get ready to see the iconic whale sculpture in the 9th & 9th neighborhood transform—artist Jiyoun Lee-Lodge is painting a fresh, eye-catching mural called “Open Your Eyes” with bold blues, pinks, and flowing water patterns, including a giant eye. Replacing Mike Murdock’s original “Point of Reference,” this new artwork kicks off a rotating art program every 3-5 years, keeping the landmark vibrant. Work starts this month, wrapping by October 3rd—with a celebratory Whale Fest to unveil it. This isn’t just public art; it’s community energy made visible.
