- Description
-
This piece presents a three-dimensional, black head and neck form. A mask of orange, red, and white paint covers the face. Thin, white vertical lines extend down the forhead, but they are contained by a horizontal bisector. Eyebrows are suggested by two rows alternating white dots. Another row of alternating, light orange dots bisects the area extending from the middle of the nose, and thin lines similar to the ones on the forehead extend down over the rest of the face. Two orange circles, bordered with alternating white and red dots and covered in thin white lines. The orange lips are outlined in red.

This project included the construction of a complex of four major science buildings: the construction of a new Museum of Natural History and two smaller architecture studio buildings to replace dislocated facilities, and a remodel of a former science building for Architecture and Allied Arts, which lost about 15,000 net square feet of programmatic space to construction of the new science buildings. The project was completed between 1989-1991. An interactive campus map of the University of Oregon may be viewed at: http://map.uoregon.edu/
