Description of Work:
Visitors approach by a red boardwalk or intersecting bridges over a water garden. Above their heads, visitors see massive red, netted “sky lanterns” moving in the wind. Below they see “water drawing” amidst the reflections in the pond.
Artist Statement:
"Water Sky Garden" transforms the plaza surrounding the Richmond Olympic Oval into a permanent art environment for the community. Echelman’s design engages the space all around the viewer – water, sky, and pedestrian pathways – to create an immersive whole using rock, wood, water, air bubble fountains, steel, netting, and light.
