Overview

The “Colorado River” as it flows through Austin, Texas flanked by three parks. 84″H x 240″ L x 2.5″ D, postage stamps on aluminum.

Goals

The goal was to create a visually interesting work of art that was relevant to Austin, Texas. The Colorado River flows through Austin and helps shape its culture, especially with outdoor activities. Its presence also serves an ever present geographic reference.

Process

The art consultant and I worked to transform a large commercial lobby wall. Through our collaboration we successfully stayed within budget and met the short deadline.

Additional Information

Although the artwork is 20 feet long, it was made to easily ship and install.
