Description: Inspiration for both sculputral form and text is the concept that each individual citizen does make a difference; that in government as well as in society the "whole" is measured by the sum of its parts. Quotations about importance of th eindividual's role in goverment and in society are etched into mosaic, sometimes bridging more than one section so that a viewer must hunt for the connecting text. Front Entry: 3 Sections--Sculpture in front of the building invites the viewer to sit for a moment and ask: "What is this about?" "Where can I find more information?" The color and dramatic shapes, located to the right of entry, counterbalance the canopy. Back Patio: 5 sections--These colorful, randomly-strewn puzzle pieces enliven the back patio and encourage the viewer to linger, to sit and connect with others, or to come down from second story and investigate., http://www.hkmeehan.com/; http://kathleenmeehan.com/, The Oregon Arts Commission has ten Regional Arts Councils that provide delivery of art services and information.

Description: Working closely with John Rogers and the architect was Portland glass artist Howard Meehan who is the corporate design manager for Tektronix. The two 10 foot by 15 foot glass areas in the auditorium reference Rogers' wall relief and reflect the artist's interest in aerial views of the earth. As a Vietnam Veteran, Meehan felt strongly about the new building. His imagery echoes the topography of the Asian European theaters, and the translucent sandblasted areas also make the movement of the traffic on Summer Street. Color was introduced by glass rods fused to the inside of each of the interior panels before they were sealed for thermal insulation. Meehan was assisted in this work by glass fabricator Tim O'Neil.
