Inspired by the first sequential photographs representing motion shot by Eadweard Muybridge in 1886, the mural depicts interdisciplinary artist and University of Iowa dance professor Michael Sakamoto (top), dance artist and University of Iowa dance MFA graduate Jesse Factor (bottom), and the artist Marina Ross (middle) performing their own work. Originally in video format, the performances were isolated into film stills and colored to represent a contemporary and digital reinterpretation of the historical reference.
