ART BUS SHELTER
My "Art Bus Shelter" entitled "CELEBRATE" is now installed on Main Street in Las Cruces, New Mexico near the new Las Cruces City Hall. Chosen in a design competition, the work was commissioned to celebrate Gay, Lesbian and Trans-gender sexuality by Bus Stop Productions. Fabricated of coated steel, the piece stands over 12 feet high, and features three figures (one male, one female, one neutral) supporting the roof of the shelter, with shade provided by a large pink triangle on the back. A cut-out in the central figure is in the shape of a heart.
