About
Exelon Corp. or Comed Mural Titled 'Dance of the Lightning Bugs.' The lead artist was Hector Duarte with assistant artists Delilah Saldago and Alejandro Esquiliano. They created a 3,000 square foot mural on the wall across their smart grid lab in Maywood. The artists worked with teens from the Proviso High Schools to come up with the design. The teens also helped paint the mural on nonwoven fabric in the high school, which the artists later attached to the wall.
