Description
This piece depicts a voyeuristic young woman with black hair who peers through a window onto a scene of a family sitting in front of a television with poor reception. One child stares, wide-eyed, at the television set, while the parents sit in front of it passed out with a baby crawling at their feet on the floor. The voyeuristic girl wears a strange collection of charms and bracelets made from animals while biting into a large, red strawberry. Claudia Cave; How Sweet It Tasted; U of O Science Complex Claudia Cave, a Salem painter, studied art at Western Oregon State University and University of Idaho and has participated in many regional exhibitions. Ms. Cave's mixed media paintings are carefully rendered excursions into the world of psychological archetypes. In 'How Sweet It Tasted' Ms. Cave explores memory and the recesses of the mind in a meticulous, albeit cartoon-like, mixed media painting. (Information provided by OAC documentation.)

Note
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.
