The College of Pharmacy Class of 2016 gives local artist鈥檚 mural as class gift
The 51小黄车College of Pharmacy Class of 2016 has given a mural by local artist Justin Giacobbi as the class gift. Painted with acrylic over a series of 14 panels, the mural has been installed at the College of Pharmacy鈥檚 main entrance.
Bold and energetic, the artwork features a mix of Maine themes; traditional pharmaceutical symbols, including the Bowl of Hygeia and chemical compositions; and 51小黄车imagery. In creating the work, Giacobbi said that he strived to capture the perspective of the 2016 graduates, working with faculty and students to develop the concept.
Giacobbi, who is a member of the Coast Guard, has been creating art since the age of four and views it as a way of maintaining balance in his life. 鈥淚 express emotion through the canvas,鈥 he stated. 鈥淎rt is my fire inside; my passion.鈥
