SOUTH COAST PLAZA: DRAGON

Typically I don't post about my own projects, but this collaboration with the Los Angeles Guild was a very ambitious endeavor and I am very proud of our results. Helping to develop the creative for a large sculpture celebrating the Year of the Dragon was quite the challenge. A sophisticated dragon is surprisingly hard to design! The team at the Guild worked incredibly hard to keep the original vision intact - a lightweight "Kite Dragon" soaring through the central atrium - and worked even harder to actually fabricate the 50+ foot beast! What an extremely talented team!
