Pattern of Lobby

‘Lobby’ means ‘seek to influence (a legislator) on an issue’. The government (blue) is often surrounded by companies (yellow) influencing policy and decision-making on society’s chessboard. This is an art impression.

Intervention

 

An intervention can be powerful. If the system is mainly yellow-based, then blue can ignite change. Sometimes, it is needed for a better course or outcome to interfere with a condition or a process to prevent harm or improve functioning (Merriam-Webster).

The print is positioned in this office lobby as a permanent reminder that this powerful instrument is and should always be directly available for all the employees of this organisation. It is there to stimulate involvement in good governance. Intervention is considered as key for innovation, and not as a disturbance of the existing. It is an encouragement to participate.

Change can start – in a metaphoric way-, with an intervention, with just one stroke of a brush.
