Located on the south wall of a historic two-story brick building adjacent to The Monroe tower at 111 W. Monroe Street, “Si’alik Hiosik” is a 45-foot mural by two renowned local artists — Thomas “Breeze” Marcus and Miles “El Mac” MacGregor. From the O’odham language, the title translates to “morning blossom.” Featuring El Mac’s signatures portrait style, utilizing repeating contour patterns, and Breeze’s interlocking geometric designs, the central image is a portrait of a real-life Onk Akimel O’odham girl from the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Community. Spearheaded by ViaWest Group, which owns the building with joint-venture partner GEM Realty Capital, Artlink Inc. facilitated the call to artists, and the project was sponsored by the Downtown Phoenix Partnership.
