ALTON - There’s a new mural coming to Alton with a techno twist. Peat Eyez, a famous stencil artist known for their augmented reality murals, is working on a mural of Miles Davis at Hiram’s Bar in Alton. The mural will feature Davis playing the trumpet. On Thursday, Oct. 17, 2024, the mural was nearing completion as Eyez painted in a suit. They explained that they tried to dress like Davis, complete with a trumpet and instrument case carrying spray paint. “I normally don’t paint murals wearing a suit, but I thought today this would be very appropriate,” Eyez said. “My medium is stencils. I work in stencils and spray paint. I’m not a graffiti artist. A lot of people think that because I use spray paint, but my motivation is really to beautify, not to vandalize. I’ve always been a huge Miles Davis fan.” Eyez is one of the frontrunners in augmented reality art. They completed the first augmented reality mural in Kansas
