Something to say mural

This mural design is a tribute to the Human Policy Press, an independent press started by the Center on Human Policy at Syracuse University in 1974, to promote positive attitudes towards people with disabilities.

​

I combined the press’s powerful quote with some questioning eyes that are a spin on those of Dr. TJ Eckleburg’s in The Great Gatsby. I wanted the painting to make people think deeper about whose experiences we value and whose we cast aside.
