Gallery of Speed

The Indianapolis Monumental Marathon draws tens of thousands of runners each year, making it one of the signature race weekends in the Midwest. At the heart of the festivities is The Gallery of Speed, an immersive, art-driven experience created by Athletic Annex that showcases the culture, creativity, and momentum of the running world. Instead of a standard expo booth, the gallery treats performance gear like artwork — framed singlets, spotlighted racing shoes, and limited-edition prints displayed with museum-level intention.

This year, I had the opportunity to partner with Nike to design their official racing singlet for the event. The piece debuted inside the gallery as a featured installation, blending high-performance design with the storytelling of Indianapolis’ racing heritage.

The response was unreal — the Nike singlet sold out in under 4.5 hours on opening day of the expo. Seeing runners line up for something I designed, and watching it disappear that quickly, was one of those moments that reminds you why you create.
