Date Installed: Summer 2022
Lowell-born Puerto Rican artist Andrew Tricoche intertwined Aztec and Puerto Rican cultures to create “The Other Me/El Otro Yo/La Otra Yo.” In the summer of 2022, Tricoche fulfilled the task of designing and painting this mural for Middlesex Community College in Derby Park.
“The Other Me” draws inspiration from the geometric snakes from Aztec artifacts with an additional component of vejigante patterns that speak to Tricoche’s Puerto Rican heritage.
This mural was created as part of the Beyond Walls and ArtUp Lowell’s art installation series during the summer of 2022.
Location: Derby Park (60 Middle Street)
