16. “Mosaic Wall”
Steve Smith
Location: Outdoor Aquatic Center - Kentucky St. between 7th & 8th Sts.
Year purchased: 1999
Mosaic is a fitting medium
for representing an aquatic center. Though the pool behind
the wall is not tiled, the blue tiles arranged to create
this structure give the subtle allusion to fun in the sun
- and water. It is a very inviting piece of work and a great
foreshadowing of the fun to be had beyond the gate.
