Asheville Artist Creates 85-Foot Mural for New Moxy Hotel

Scott Allred’s Latest Masterpiece

ASHEVILLE, N.C. — Scott Allred, an Asheville-based muralist and sign creator, is currently working on an impressive 85-foot-tall mural for the upcoming Moxy Hotel in Asheville. The new hotel is set to open its doors, welcoming guests to a unique artistic experience.

Collaborative Design

Allred’s mural design captures the essence of Asheville’s natural beauty, featuring cascading waterfalls and native plants like rhododendrons. The mural pays homage to the local landscape with a touch of cultural richness by incorporating Asian-inspired elements.

Asian Influence in Asheville

“Let’s try to combine something that shows the beauty of Asheville and something that shows a bit of Asian flavor, something that shows distilling or cocktails,” Allred shared regarding his inspiration for the mural. The fusion of Asheville’s charm with Asian aesthetics will bring a unique blend of artistry to the Moxy Hotel.

Tallest Mural Yet

Upon completion, the 85-foot-tall mural at Moxy Hotel will stand as the tallest creation in Allred’s portfolio. The scale of the project reflects the artist’s commitment to pushing artistic boundaries and creating visually striking works that captivate the audience.

Located at 61 Biltmore Avenue, Moxy Hotel is gearing up for its grand opening on August 1, offering guests a vibrant and artistic setting to explore and unwind. The hotel will feature an Asian-themed restaurant and multiple bars, providing guests with a multicultural culinary experience.

Conclusion

Asheville’s art scene continues to flourish with the addition of Scott Allred’s monumental mural at the Moxy Hotel. The fusion of local inspiration with global influences promises a visual delight for visitors and locals alike. Stay tuned for the unveiling of this spectacular artwork as Asheville welcomes a new landmark in its vibrant artistic landscape.
