The 19 feet wide by 50-foot high granite wall is cut open in an organic profile, revealing the river within that appears to be growing up like a vine from beneath the ground and along the façade of the building. The inspiration for this work has been the wonder of the natural landscape of Idaho, experienced both at ground level and flying over the land.  

Boise's remarkable and diverse collection of Public Art is growing each year. Search the collection of paintings, sculptures, murals, installations, mosaics, traffic boxes and much more to fully appreciate the rich treasure that is the City's Public Art.
