At the time of its completion, "Metamorphosis #5" was the largest mural of Tavar Zawacki’s career and in the whole of Western New York. The vibrant pattern of vividly colored overlapping and interweaving forms—visible for blocks on this stretch of Main Street—is based on Zawacki’s signature artistic motif: the upward arrow.

This mural has been made possible through the generosity of Sinatra & Company Real Estate and Bank of America. Additional support provided by C2 Paint. The Public Art Initiative was established and is supported by leadership funding from the County of Erie and the City of Buffalo. Learn more at www.albrightknox.org/publicart.
