ABOUT THE ARTWORK

From Home by artist team Harrell Fletcher and Jon Rubin is a series of images for five lightboxes at the bus stop outside of the UW School of Art.

This artwork was part of a group of rotating installations on the University of Washington campus. The artists were selected in a competitive process to create images for existing lightboxes at bus stops outside of the UW's School of Art and Meany Hall. The images were reproduced as large-scale transparencies to fit the lightboxes. The bus stops featured the artworks for several months.

This artwork was acquired for the State Art Collection in partnership with University of Washington.
