LIBERTY & FLAG created with 4,000 recycled computer keys from old keyboards. 
The GREEN in LIBERTY represents the oxidized copper of the Statue of Liberty. 
The FLAG is an original American flag manufactured by the Annin Flag Company out of Verona, New Jersey. The Annin family ultimately bought and owned over 2,700 acres in central Jersey in the 1700's what is now Liberty Corner in Basking Ridge, NJ. I went to William Annin Jr. High in the mid 70's. 

There is a word search spelled out with the keys hidden throughout the artwork.

Whoever would overthrow the liberty of a nation must begin by subduing the freeness of speech. -Benjamin Franklin 

 Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free . -Emma Lazarus 

 Give me liberty, or give me death. -Thomas Paine 

 Liberty, once lost, is lost forever. -John Adam
