Public Art - Fort Worth, Texas
Marine Creek Parkway Public Art Project
Fort Worth, Texas
Curated by Iris Bechtol @irisbechtol
Alicia Eggert @aplaceintheuniverse and I have designed proposals for traffic roundabouts for the Fort Worth Public Art program. In addition to research about the city and assessment of the logistics of the roundabouts, we also considered the proposal guidelines that the sculptures at the “two roundabouts should tie into each other, connect without mirroring each other.”
Iris Bechtol’s curatorial work and the design process led to our proposal for the two roundabouts featuring Alicia Eggert’s A Very Long Now and my sculpture One Way. Following submissions and presentations by the three finalist curators, our team has been selected for the Marine Creek Parkway Public Art Project.
THANK YOU to the @fwpublicart selection panel for your time and consideration of our proposal! And special thanks to Michelle Richardson @mtrichardson.studio the FW Public Art Project manager!
I’m honored to be a part of this team and look forward to all the upcoming work leading to our installations in Fort Worth.
