After countless requests, this gallery of our office art pieces is put together to satisfy every curiosity. While it would be nice to have professionally made captions mounted on a plaque under each piece on the wall, there are 2 problems with this approach: (1) the occasional new addition will incur a delay and inordinate expense, and (2) patients (who are here for medical purposes, after all) do not visit every room and have the opportunity to see every piece.
Thus, the next best arrangement is to provide online captions for photos of the actual pieces to answer the question, “Where did that come from?”
By the way, the original intent of the eclectic collection of irregularly shaped and sometimes fabric-containing wall art is a very practical purpose, which is to absorb excess sound in our carpetless office!
