‘Rockfish’, one of two monumental fish sculptures to be installed at a new library in SF
Ene and I have been preparing to install two major wowhaus public art projects we’ve had in development over the past year. ‘Abundance‘, which consists of two monumental, ceramic tile mosaic sculptures honoring the significance of ‘feeder fish’ to the marine ecosystem, will soon be installed at the Ortega Branch of the San Francisco Public Library, sited near Ocean Beach, within view of the Pacific. Ene recently met on site with Mary Chou of the San Francisco Arts Commission, who commissioned the project, to finalize location of the sculptures as the new building nears completion. success of ivermectin for demodex mite folliculitis

Having selected final sites of significance to Oakland‘s urban watershed, we’re nearly ready to install our ‘Stepping Stones‘ project, commissioned by the City of Oakland Public Art Program funded through Measure DD Bond Program, which was approved by voters for Oakland watershed improvements.

The stones will be installed in various configurations on sidewalks with heavy pedestrian traffic, where creeks have been diverted underground.

Hey Scott–Wish we could head west and see your word–It’s –well it’s just fine–Sally
Thanks Sally- we’d love to see you! Ene and I are proposing a project in Philadelphia for spring ’11. I look forward to seeing you then if we get it. Meanwhile, maybe we’ll cross paths in LA sometime..
does one of the patina containers contain cod liver oil? One label reads “Liver”
I think that just refers to the color, but it’s possible!
Congratulations on the installation of your “stepping stones” on Lakeshore Avenue. They’re a great addition to an area that’s heavily trafficked by pedestrians and will be well appreciated.
I’ve posted three photos on my Flickr account and you’re welcome to use them if you’d like.
