Chicago-based artists Chris Silva and Michael Genovese have created an installation titled “Most of us can read the writing on the wall; we just assume it's addressed to someone else.” Silva and Genovese describe the mural as “composed of various quotes and based around the theme that there already exists a great wealth of wise and valuable ideas which require no revision and are ripe for a more widespread broadcast.” The title of the piece is a quote by American author Ivern Ball.
