The Marina and Twin Peaks
I created two different sculptures of the Marina District and Twin Peaks for shows at the Exploratorium in 2006. Both sculptures were built on shake tables carpeted with dry ice to simulate the San Francisco fog. Thousands of viewers came to see the pieces, which commemorated the Centennial of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake.
I also created photographs inspired by the sculptures, available for purchase.
