Migration

Migration

The path of Migration begins with the ascension of thousands of brilliantly colored cast metal Monarch butterflies along the brilliant blue wall of the South East stairwell. The butterflies escape the stairwell and migrate toward the book stacks resting on the ceiling. Their destination is not arbitrary, but marks the location of significant books by Latin American authors of various disciplines. Migration acknowledges the contributions of these authors and further reinforces the concept of "circulation" - both of books and knowledge - as a major goal of the library.

Location: South East stairwell and some additional floors
