Exhibit F: Approved Preliminary Design
The sculptures proposed for this project hearken back to some of the elements we all share and
experience: earth, air, fire and water. The artist intends the playful contrast of vibrant color and
cheerful imagery to enliven the daily activities of families walking or driving to work and school
along this major arterial. The artist has chosen simple, universal and heartwarming forms as the
lodestone of his design. Working in his typical vocabulary of glass, metal, light and paint his twenty
designs for the Ray White Road reference quintessential elements to beautify and activate a suburban
roadside. They offer an unhurried day-to-day reminder that beauty, creativity, and simplicity are still
worthy of attention.
Inspired by landscaping gabions, stainless steel rods are woven and welded into innovative basket-
like structures that contain backlit glass forms the artist refers to as "tchonks". These rock -like glass
elements soften and organically diffuse the interior LEDs that provide controlled illumination,
yielding a warm, comforting glow. Shaped steel tubes provide exceptional structural stability,
providing raceways for wiring and enabling the sculptures to appear to defy gravity.
Standing approximately 4' to 8' tall, the heights of the sculptures will be adjusted to consider
sightlines as well as any other pre-existing site conditions.
