Davis’ mural is a commentary on the conflict between technology & progress and history & culture. African statues are shown with their genitalia replaced by machines. Davis painted this mural in response to the destruction of several Hannah Hall murals for windows looking into a new computer lab. He foresaw that his own mural may also be damaged.
