“Taifo Pattern” is based on observations of legs, antennae, and wings of large cricket-like insects that live mostly in coconut trees. The drawings were repeated to create this pattern with overlapping forms.

This artwork is one of a series of utility box wrap murals commissioned by Omaha by Design's Art+Infrastructure public art initiative, with the goal of beautifying Omaha’s “in-between spaces” to help neighborhoods to become more connected, residents to feel safer, and visitors to experience moments of joy. The wraps were completed in partnership with Metro to complement the new ORBT rapid bus transit lines by adding original art to stations along the East/West Dodge Street line.
