Description / Interpretation:
Depicts two prevalent social ills, senseless killing of young people, and homelessness. The shaman in the center represents a healthy state of wholeness. Cesar Chavez represents vision, being focused. The elderly are symbols of rich experience and wisdom. The spirits of Pancho Villa and Zapata are there to signify strength and courage. The mural's title refers to the role of the spiritual in finding solutions. Sponsored and commissioned by SPARC. Photo: © Robin Dunitz
