About this mural:
Jiffy Lube of Indiana partnered with the Arts Council of Indianapolis to commission local artists to paint murals at locations around Indiana. The murals collectively serve to further Jiffy Lube’s mission of “growing people through work” as well as beautify the commercial corridors on which the stores reside, and create a sense of place. Koda was commissioned to paint this mural at the Carmel/Zionsville location, and was inspired by gender and ethnic diversity, as well as the native flowers of Indiana.

***BOTH INDIANAPOLIS AND BROOKLYN BASED**
I am a professional artist (she/her) that was born, raised, and educated in Indiana. I now have two bases of operations, one in Indianapolis and a studio in Brooklyn, NY. I have completed mural and art installations nationally for brands like Eli Lilly, the Indianapolis Colts, the NCAA, Boys & Girls Clubs of America, Jiffy Lube, the Indiana Pacers, and for cities like Fishers, IN; Corpus Christi, TX; Odessa, TX; Green Bay, WI; Indianapolis, IN; and Casper, WY. I specialize in project managing initiatives from concept to installation; from marketing to delivery; from understanding goals, to creating action plans at scale that meet KPIs - all with a special emphasis on community engaged work.
I take great pride in incorporating important themes and inspirations in my murals. My portfolio includes murals which celebrate gender and racial diversity, advocate for environmental sustainability, and tell the stories of important events.
I am neither a history painter, nor a landscape painter, nor a portraitist; I am an artist of life and feeling. My vibrant, positive art celebrates people, families, and the communities they build and memories they make.
