Mermaid Playground was designed by Malachy McKinney. McKinney was inspired by the old Aquarena Springs theme park and its attractions. He chose a collage pop art style to depict the boats, structures, local fish, Ralph the Swimming Pig, and mermaids. McKinney wanted to keep the viewers engaged with the piece as they searched for elements in the collage.
