Alejandra Palacios

Visual Artist; Architect and 3D Architectural Visualizer

Alejandra Palacios Biography Alejandra chose the brush as her way of expressing her feelings through life. It allows her to combine colors and feelings to create an artwork with a sense of realism, and a peek from her perspective. Her art shows life from a completely different viewpoint; suggesting a life that many people do not see, even when standing next to her. Simply stated, she deconstructs the view that most see, and creates a fresh new energy and movement of the same landscape, with vivid colors/energy. Traditional media (oil on Canvas), she is reminded that there is more to life than tradition. She wishes the people to see outside of the box; to view a common sight in a not-so common way. Having studied styles as diverse as Sandro Botticelli, Leonardo Da Vinci, Van Gogh, and Marinetti as artists, she also pursued an Architectural Degree studying Ricardo Legorreta, Luis Barragan and Le Corbusier and incorporated Omquest Design Solutions. A 3D Architectural Rendering Company that has been instrumental to the Hollywood CRA or Community Redevelopment Agency in it’s goal to revitalize both downtown and the beach community. Often times, these themes are combined into a medium that incorporates a layered architectural design, keeping the real image of the minds eye that most see, but showing the futuristic view that she views. The subject matter of each body of work determines the materials and the forms of the work. She has created a pattern of circles; a pattern that is reflective of the source of energy that she in visions creates the movement in her work. Thomas Edison spent his life inventing light & motion picture, inspiring her work to explore new artistic techniques and compositions to exhibit life through her eyes. As a result, she created her own style that she refers to as “Geometric Futurism Art”.

Lori Pratico

Visual Artist

MISSION STATEMENT Girl Noticed is a Nationwide Mural Project, building and maintaining a world better informed about the positive impact the simple act of “Noticing” a girl has. Girl Noticed makes the bold statement that it is a community’s responsibility to yield to the greatness in every girl. The aim of this program is to bring attention and awareness to the important role females play in our society. It all starts with local communities nominating girls and women as candidates to be “Noticed” for their talent, intelligence, and character. Nominations cover a wide spectrum, ranging from personal struggles to momentous achievements. An individual is then selected from the list of candidates and recognized in a unique and compelling way. The girl’s image is drawn in charcoal, along with the words “Notice Me,” on a large exterior wall. The brief lifespan of these charcoal images are at the mercy of weather conditions and time. It becomes clear that the temporary mural has a permanent message. A different medium, paint, may also be used in some of the murals, and over time, these will be erased or replaced as well. For a girl unnoticed, being recognized like this is a powerful declaration on many levels. The larger objective of communicating the message behind the message is that there is a very limited window of time to “Notice” the mural, the girl and what she values most in herself. By design, this rapidly disappearing message creates a sense of urgency in a local community, and that is, to see and be impacted in an enduring way by a big and bold statement that is in contrast, short-lived and impermanent. This metaphor conveys a powerful lesson of what can happen to a girl who may never fully grow into her fullest potential if family members, mentors, friends and society don’t Pause, Acknowledge and Appreciate her. Artist and Activist, Lori Pratico, plans to travel through all 50 states to erect these large exterior murals. Photographs will be taken during the creation of each mural, leading up to the eventual publication of a book about the Girls Noticed and the overall project.
