Spirit of Healing

"Spirit of Healing" a 9-story mosaic mural by San Antonio artist Jesse Treviño on the side of Christus Santa Rosa Children’s Hospital, at 500 West Houston Street, San Antonio, Texas. Photos taken December 2018.
⠀⠀⠀
'"Spirit of Healing shows an angel looking over the shoulder of a young boy holding a dove. That boy was Treviño's son, Jesse Jr. Treviño says the mural has a message.
"And that message is that we need to pay more attention to directing and guiding our children in everything they do," he said.
And there is another interesting detail if you look closely at the angel's wings. "He made that angel with a broken wing. And that was his little way of saying, ‘I'm here too,’" he said."' - https://www.tpr.org/arts-culture/2020-01-29/how-jesse-trevino-created-so-much-of-san-antonios-public-art
