I’ve been working with and in discussions with Crystal Bridges and Ozark Regional Transit and soon I’ll be wrapping a public transit bus with my art. This is part of an initiative to expand public transportation in NWA and integrate the arts. The art will consist of gear and butterfly symbolism. As Northwest Arkansas grows so does our need for public transportation. The butterfly symbolizes this transformative period and public transportation is at the very center of this change. Gears represent the progress and innovation of Northwest Arkansas. Both gears and butterflies represents the delicate balance between our natural world and our growing infrastructure and underlines our responsibility to grow responsibly and public transportation is the key to a sustainable, progressive and environmentally friendly region.
