Phylum of the Free 2015, Artist: Jeffrey Andrade Hemming, Fountain Alley at South First Street, San Jose, California
|
A low fence bordered a parking lot. Printed on that fence were the names of the two streets that identified the location of this mural.
|
The mural was very long. It occupied the entire wall of a deep building.
|
The right end of the mural contained images of urban junk, old space capsules, and incomplete freeways.
Two surfers walked out of the junk.
|
The two surfers approached more urban junk.
|
A giraffe walked the other direction, toward the surfers but encountered impassable junk.
|
Three giraffes walked past elevated roadways on their way into the junk of the city.
|
A space capsule was assembled at the left end of the mural. The word Lido was printed on a board behind the capsule workers.
|
At the farthest left-hand end of the mural was a collection of radio antenna dishes.
