The Ion District and Rice Management Company request qualifications and preliminary installation proposals from artists or artist teams residing in Texas to create a site-specific temporary installation on the Ion outdoor plaza located within the Ion District for three months, from January through March 2023. The artwork should be interactive, engaging, playful and contain a lighting element. It should also have a presence during daylight hours.

The full plaza measures approximately 250’ long x 40’ wide. The trellis is approximately 134’2” long x 33’7” wide. Elements within the trellis area and extending throughout the plaza can be considered. Maintenance and safety are key considerations as the plaza is fully accessible to the public 24/7.
