Details

Commissioned to enliven this stretch of Key Boulevard, the 17 mosaic panels of Continuum by artists David Y. Chung and Tom Ashcraft depict motion through a sequence of abstract botanical forms. A second work by Chung and Ashcraft, Reposto, is situated at the main entrance of this building on Oak Street. Reposto consists of two mosaic benches and one mosaic sculpture, whose forms echo the organic shapes found in Continuum.

Although Continuum is two-dimensional and Reposto sculptural, the shared color scheme, mosaic design, and references to natural forms visually unite these works. Both were installed in 2003.
