an interpretation

During the summer, the Punto Urban Art Museum issued a call for art to be placed on a wall surrounding a power station in The Point neighborhood of Salem. This wall is assigned a theme and painted in the fall of the year. This year's request was for artists to submit ideas that would:

use their creativity, communication and advocacy to develop an interpretation of "The American Dream."

My favorite of this new set of murals was created by Emily Kwong.
