Overview

Commissioned by the town of Castle Rock, Colorado, Still Wild sits right in front of town hall. Based on common Colorado wildflowers, the piece is meant to honor the natural beauty of the Colorado landscape and reflect the culture of the Castle Rock community. Still Wild stands as a reminder that while the Colorado front range has become more sophisticated and urban, those who are drawn to the Colorado lifestyle really come for its natural beauty.

The colorful petals bring a splash of color to the town hall courtyard during the day, and are also internally lit with colored LEDs so that each petal glows at night. Location: Castle Rock, Colorado Town Hall
