About Watershed Sculpture
- Daniel McCormick & Mary O'Brien
- Farifax, California, United States
- We want our sculptures to have a part in influencing the ecological balance of compromised environments. We are compelled by the idea of using sculpture in a way that will allow the damaged areas of a watershed to reestablish themselves. As it has evolved, our art has become focused on strategically congregating sculptural components made from riparian materials back into the watershed system. They are intended to give advantage to the natural system, and after a period of time, as the restoration process is established, the artists' presence shall no longer be felt.

It was nice meeting you and Mary at CCACA on Friday. I love your blog and your restoration work. This is exactly what we have been studying in my upper division art survey course with Professor James Kuiper. It has been very fascinating and exciting to see all the land/environmental art that is happening. Keep up the good work.

Nice narration. I appreciate the overarching concept of finding purpose in what you create. Without this driving force, why make anything?
