Megatron (V17/9A) - Hamish McArthur

Third place of the Mellow Rock Games!

In April of 2025 Hamish McArthur made the second ascent of Megatron (V17/9a) in Eldorado Canyon, Colorado. With hints to his artistic practice, this visual collaboration allows Hamish to take the viewer into an incredibly personal space exploring his mental process and his ideas around awareness. To let go of unnecessary narratives about ourselves and our world. To become aware that we are everything and we are nothing, and in that awareness we can become invisible, we can let go of the self and find what lies beyond.
