[1] Together with Untitled #78, Untitled #77 was specifically created for a waiting room at Sidney and Lois Eskenazi Hospital and was inspired by Wayman Adams' painted children's portraits, which are part of the hospital organization's historic art collection: “I thought about a concept that could represent the true diversity the population of Indianapolis.

The method I chose to do was by exploring textile patterns to engage in a much broader dialogue about the movement of ideas, cultures, and people.

My works were inspired by the 1914 Wayman Adams project in which he created 20 portraits of children from different ethnicities for the pediatric unit.

The end result is a set of prints that are feminine, energetic and contrasting.” -Artur Silva[1] Untitled #77 was commissioned by Eskenazi Health as part of a re-imagining of the organization's historical art collection and to support "the sense of optimism, vitality and energy" of its new campus in 2013.

[2][3] In response to its nationwide request for proposals, Eskenazi Health received more than 500 submissions from 39 states, which were then narrowed to 54 finalists by an independent jury.
