What a fascinating project, this SEAT. Read all your posts this week, then checked out the website… and passed it on to an urban art manager friend of mine. Good stuff!
I’m not sure if I would have realized this was for sitting but I like it!
Interesting work… Sorry I been so quiet these last couple weeks, I’ve been really ill (now finally diagnosed with Whooping Cough even though I was immunized) and have had another very rough week.
Thanks Cindy, for sharing on WTS31! San Fransisco has a tremendous amount of public art… love it!
