The piece was a 45-foot canvas mural in three sections running down the entire central hall. Originally created as a collage using cut, colored papers it was scanned and refined to create the mural as well as the fine art giclee print. the work was inspired by a visit to the Arthur and Metta Jaffe Libraray at Florida Atlantic University. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
