We talked with the local community meeting, what they like to see.
We came up with an idea that the local bird Quail is going to the Park to use the equipment.
It baceme the popular spot to take selfies with the sculpture.

I was selected to make a public art for the Phoenix Convention Center. This piece shows the Mix culture of the city of Phoenix by the food cactus, which has, American, Mexican, Italian and Japanese Food on them. The Fashion cactus shows many fashinable items from a hat to the shoes. Phoenix is the 5th largest city in the US, so what you can get in NY, You can get in Phoenix, too. Phoenix even have a mam made lake, and sprinklers blooming floweres everywhere. It almost natural to feel the fish in the Cactus!!
