Electrical boxes can be sweet spots for stickers and tags, but the Tempe Public Art program and the Tempe Library have a creative idea. They are having local artists create art that will be painted on utility boxes in on Mill, Ash, & College St.

Aaron Allen Marners' piece Let's Take a Walk creates a sense of cityscape surrealism. His piece focuses on figures that are encompassed by bright colors with natural elements such as leaves, vines, and flowers intertwined throughout the composition. Juxtaposed against natural landscape are cityscapes reflecting Downtown Tempe. Aarons' work hopes to provide a visual language resonating with the youth and community as a whole in Downtown Tempe. He shows adults and a child luxuriating in the natural elements of the city.
Aaron Allen currently residing in Phoenix, Arizona. As a child he grew up loving comic books, animation, street art and graffiti. He is a self-taught artist with a focus in abstract portraiture and figurative work.
The project was funded through the City of Tempe Municipal Arts Fund and Downtown Tempe Authority.
