Climate Pledge Arena: Crow Commute

For the last two years I have been working on an art commission called "Crow Commute" for the renovated arena in Seattle Center, now called Climate Pledge Arena. It is the home of the new hockey team, the Seattle Kraken. The arena opened and the Kraken began playing games there in October, but my piece, which is an 85 foot long series of etched, paint filled, stainless steel panels, is not installed yet. The panels were fabricated in Brisbane Australia and shipped by sea freight in August. Today, they languish in a container ship in Los Angeles harbor, along with a lot of other cargo, waiting to be unloaded. I am told the vessel in question will unload tomorrow, 11/4/21. Fingers crossed. With luck, Crow Commute will be installed in early December.
