“We all have our time machines. Those that take us back are memories, and those that carry us forward are dreams." - H.G.Wells

Painted for the 4th annual Largest Outdoor Gallery in Texas, this mural captures the spirit of Kurt Cobain and the lasting impact of his music.

Soup approached the wall as an open canvas for adventure and expression, a chance to connect with fellow creatives, music lovers, and passersby alike. The work embodies a moment of reflection on memory and inspiration, celebrating the songs and experiences that shape us.

Set within the dynamic Eastside block of San Antonio Street Art Initiative, the mural invites viewers to pause and remember the first time music left a mark on their lives. Through Soup’s signature black and white spray paint portrait work and text-based accented backgrounds, the piece merges portraiture with the energy of public art, creating a shared experience between artist, subject, and audience.

Though walls may be temporary, the mural serves as a time capsule of connection, emotion, and the power of music.
