Public Art Mural Commission on shipping container for the city of Hastings in Minnesota. The concept for this artwork was developed through the inspiration of Audubon's Birds of America. The pattern was developed in reference to a Native American pattern with elements of the Plains Native Americans. " In a series of new treaties the U.S. government forced Native Americans to give up their land and move to reservations in exchange for protection from attacks by white settlers." This artwork commemorates the union and remembrance of the people who inhabited the land and their connection to nature.
To be installed in January 2018 at Levee Park.
