About the Artwork

Artist Tucker Petertil creates works of art informed by his love of music, his interest in spirituality, and the experience of temporarily losing his sight. His mosaic From Here to Who Knows Where references ancient religious triptychs carried by monks on pilgrimages. The imagery depicts a figure in the act of listening, with a abstract yellow spiral evoking music and sound.

This artwork was acquired for the State Art Collection in partnership with Curlew School District.
