This work of art on the façade of the Craige Parking Deck at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is based on diagrams used in the production, recording, and transmission of knowledge on campus. These diagrams were suggested by faculty, students, and staff during interviews with Amalia Pica, primarily in the spring of 2019, about the roles of images in learning. In the words of the artist, the work shows “a collaborative network of different bits of knowledge and pieces of information, ultimately standing as a metaphor for the exchange opportunities and dialogue that the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill fosters.”
