New Bedford Electric Box

2022

New Bedford’s town committee has set out to redesign the JFK Boulevard electric box project, aiming to create a striking visual narrative that juxtaposes the city’s rich historical legacy with its vibrant contemporary culture. The redesign seeks to seamlessly blend imagery from New Bedford’s storied whaling industry, once the heartbeat of its economy, with the dynamic energy of today’s street art scene, using layered visual collages to celebrate the city’s evolving identity and the communities that continue to shape it.
