According to Delia King, lead artist/designer and founder of the
Shore to Love New Jersey Mural Tour, "we go to communities that were devastated
by the storm and where people were displaced and try to help them celebrate
their strength by inviting residents to create murals on damaged walls,
businesses and other visible landmarks," she said of a mural already completed
in Seaside Heights and others underway in such towns as Belmar, Island Heights,
Union Beach and Asbury Park."Once the LBIF graciously provided us with an anchor
point on the Island at which to work, we designed 'The Wind and the Water,'
which involves the images of Aeolus and Poseidon, the mythical Greek gods of the
wind and the sea, uniquely for LBI as a way to address both the beauty and the
hazards of Island life - the reasons why we love it as well as why it can be
dangerous."The participatory public art project began months earlier with
workshops at the Hillsdale Library, Hopewell House, OHSU Farmer's Market,
Terwilliger Plaza, Portland State University, Shriners Hospital for Children,
St. Thomas More School and Ainsworth School where the public created ceramic and
glass art for the mosaic.
