DINGBAT TYPOGRAPHY

Public Art Installation for City of West Hollywood and WORKPLAYS

1035 N. Vista St., West Hollywood, CA

The façade treatment entitled “DINGBAT TYPOGRAPHY” pays homage to this disappearing architecture by creating a set of typographical symbols of actual dingbat architecture that embellish a façade treatment on the front and side elevations of 1035 Vista Street.  This representation of a much-criticized form of architecture ties the community to its past while serving as a reminder that we will move forward with social and ecological consciousness of architectural dwellings.

APERTURES OF NATURE

Public Art, Fabrication, Installation

Hollywood’s film industry transports people to other settings through the framed view of the screen. Apertures of Nature is about framing details. Precise views of foliage, branches, shadows and bark are captured in pockets of seamless white space. This piece focuses on the celebration of simple beauties that may often go unnoticed. Installed in Plummer Park, West Hollywood for a period of four months.
