​This creation offers three mosaic murals that are large in scale set within the north and south walls of the pedestrian walkway known as the Grotto. Each one is unique in how it presents Phoenix- and Arizona-specific imagery, using color and motion lines to elicit the feeling of people rushing all around. Among the materials used to form mural panels are handmade tiles, mirror tiles, found objects, tile words and Mr. Zagar's characteristic bright-colored grouts.
