Exhibit A: Artwork Design
Artist statement: Our decision to select growth and flowering vegetation as our theme for the sculptures to
be placed on lamp poles along West Rosedale Street from 8th Avenue to Main In conjunction with our
impression of the Botanical Gardens, we took into consideration each distinct area within the corridor, the
Fairmount and Medical Districts and the Chishohr Trail. Historically, flowers and planting vegetation were
very much a part of the Fairmount District. Flowers have always been an appropriate symbol of healing that
brings comfort to those ill in the hospital. Grass IA as a primary need for cattle as the herds were driven north
on the Chisholm Trail. Ultimately, natural vegetation inspired us to create sculptural designs that reference
the three cultural infrastructures that were identified in the charette process.
Each of the ten sculptures will be fabricated primarily from carbon steel with contrasting stainless steel
accents. Each sculpture is made up of two panels, attached to either side of a Street light pole. Juxtaposed to
the metal components, dichroic glass will be an integral element and placed in a variety of locations on each
sculpture. Each Design will be fabricated and installed in two locations along West Rosedale.
