Positivity Through Art at Our Locations
NJ Eye And Ear’s founder, Dr. Daniel Stegman and his wife Patty have always been inspired by art and understood its ability to evoke emotion. It was with this concept in mind that they decided to commission a famed local artist by the name of Marco Santini to add art to our location in Englewood. We wanted our property to reflect the way that our Eye and Ear practice cares about all our patients and did this by using the power of Marco’s art. In September of 2019, Marco came to our location and made a mural of his iconic One Love logo featuring the word love in many different languages. The final product is a beautiful and powerful image that conveys inclusion, connection and universal kindness. According to Ms. Stegman, this was a perfect creation to meet the goals of the practice.
“We know words are powerful. Words can heal. Words can hurt. What we wanted to create here is a climate of health and wellness and to promote positivity.”
Thanks to the vision of our owners and the talent of Mr. Santini, this mission was accomplished.
