The MU Patio mural depicts a great and colorful multicultural collage.
Kim Anno and Miranda Bergman
"The Unfinished Dream", 1991
acrylic mural
Commissioned by the Office of Student Affairs and the Campus Art in Public Places Work Group
"In June, 1990 UC Davis Art in Public Places issued a call to artists for a mural competition to "portray UC Davis' transition to a campus of true diversity, reflecting the richness of its many cultures and supporting its growing underrepresented populations." Kim Anno and Miranda Bergman were selected by a committee of students, staff and faculty to paint the mural. The evolution of this mural was a collaboration between Anno and Bergman at every stage, from discussions and research to creating the sketch and painting it. There were several meetings with student groups for input and discussion of the design. The meetings resulted in changes in the sketch and made the designing of the mural a vital and interactive process. In addition, students participated in the painting of the mural."[![[WWW]](http://wikispot.org/wiki/eggheadbeta/img/sycamore-www.png){kind=small}
