Love Over Rules Salma Family Building
Permanent Installation

Glowing 6-foot-6-inch letters spell out LOVE OVER RULES on the exterior wall of the Salma Family Building in the heart of the Yerba Buena neighborhood. Part of Sites Unseen, permanently on view at the Salma Family Building, 165 Jessie Street, Yerba Buena District, San Francisco, CA. Situated in an alley off Mission Street, the light sculpture is the first permanent public artwork of Hank’s. A tribute to the artist’s cousin, murdered in 2000, the blinking white neon installation shares his cousin’s last recorded message to Thomas. Each word gets a line, encouraging different reads: is it “LOVE OVER RULES” or “LOVE OVERRULES?”
