CONCEPT NARRATIVE
The concept of the civic art piece is the symbolic reflection of a kaleidoscope. The artwork is a way of thinking about how we as individuals come together to form a colorful and multi-faceted community where all are seen and honored. The artwork reflects joy which is found in the bright colors of the wall; play as a way of making connections with the expression of music found with the drums; and discovery is encouraged along the corridor by spinning mosaic circles.
The walkway will be activated by the vibrant colors, rhythmic beats, and expression of movement by the mosaic circles, the space will not be able to be seen all at once because of the nearness of the building next door. The project has been designed so that the experience is more intimate as you proceed down the walkway.

5 MAINTENANCE
Mosaic circles are durable and need only minimal attention. Inspection yearly for any loss of glass or mortar/grout. Unlikely to need any replacement unless vandalized. A wash of silicone sealant yearly is recommended to help keep any small cracks from forming due to weather. Hand buff to shine.
Vibe Drums inspection yearly for any damage. Replace as needed (ability to order replacement drums directly from manufacturer or re-powder coat or electro polish).
Unlikely to need any replacement for many years unless vandalized.
Wall Paint replace as needed (ability to order replacement paint directly from manufacturer, paint formulas provided along with any leftover paint). Unlikely to need any replacement for many years unless vandalized.
6 ARTIST STATEMENT
I love creating timeless mosaics and glass-on-glass installations using tiles or stained glass that are shaped, fired, and carved. Public installations with glass/clay can take shape as murals, sculptural installations, or functional seating areas. I make sure that the materials used last a lifetime with only a wash of water-based sealant yearly to protect the grout from freeze thaw cycles. Think Pompeii abstracted, with the vivid colors of today, durable, timeless, and joyful.
I’m excited about my kinetic hanging or free-standing sculptural installations that move with the wind or ambient air currents of people moving about the building or using lighted elements that add to the nighttime palette.
