A Public Art Project to Integrate the Art into the Architecture

This project was commissioned by homeWORD a non-profit organization that builds affordable housing.  Kim Olsen of O2 Architects is the architect for this project.  I worked with Kim to integrate the art shown below into the architecture of this twenty unit apartment complex.  It is located on the corner of Eighth Avenue South and South Twenty-Eighth Street in Billings, Montana.
