Mural & Sculpture Installation John L. McMillan Federal Building Florence, SC 10' x 20' Unveiled 1978 |
This mural is located inside the entrance of the John L. McMillan Federal Building in Florence, South Carolina. It was commissioned by the GSA (General Services Administration). Sky designed and built the installation concrete bridge sculpture which surrounds the mural, inviting the viewer to participate in the scene.
The original mural included twinkling stars, fireflies, and reflections in the water - effects produced by then-cutting-edge fiber optic technology.
Unfortunately, the mural was recently shipped to the Smithsonian and 'restored' without the artist's knowledge or consent. The backlighting was removed, parts of the canvas were haphazardly patched, and the canvas was revarnished, leaving the mural in a rather questionable state. Many are disappointed with this turn of events, considering that had he been asked, Sky himself could have restored the work properly.
