One sculpture, the Sword Fern (Polystichum munitum), will be mounted on the vertical concrete surface in the niche (formerly a window) on the East side of City Hall, near the entrance (site #a). The other sculpture, Western Bleeding Heart (Dicentra Formosa), will be mounted on the vertical concrete surface in the niche on the West side of City Hall (site #i). These two sculptures are enlarged portraits of native plants, chosen for the beauty of their form and foliage. These sculptures are composed and proportioned so as to make the niches (formerly windows) in which they are displayed seem to have been designed for the artwork. This seemed the best way to make the artwork blend seamlessly with the existing structure and surroundings. The scale of the sculpture is in balance with the scale of the building and the space around the building. The sculpture will be hand forged, and will be fully three- dimensional, yet it will remain close to the plane of the building wall, in the manner of a frieze, maintaining it's connection to the architecture, and to the niche which frames the sculpture. MATERIALS and METHOD of CONSTRUCTION The proposed sculptures will be made of hand forged mild steel. We carry out all aspects of the work in our Seattle studio,these include the shaping of white-hot steel by hand and hammer, welding, finishing and design. All edges will be ground and filed so that the steel will be smooth to touch. We will have the finished work professionally painted with an industrial grade paint system consisting of an epoxy primer and two-part polyurethane topcoat. Our work is extremely durable and is designed for ease of maintenance in public outdoor settings. ESTIMATED WEIGHT LOADS,METHODS OF ATTATCHMENT and INSTALLATION The Western Bleeding Heart sculpture will consist of four separate elements,each weighing about 5o pounds. The four elements will each be attached to the surface of the concrete at two points, with two masonry anchors to be used at each of the two points. The four pieces the artwork will be oriented as shown in the enclosed drawing. The entire sculpture (about zoo pounds) will thus be supported by a total of 16 masonry anchors. This allows for redundancy and flexibility during installation. The Sword Fern sculpture will consist of four separate elements,weighing about 4.0,75,150 and 175 Pounds respectively. These elements will each be attached to the surface of the concrete at two points, with two masonry anchors to be used at each of the two points. The four pieces the artwork will be oriented as shown in the enclosed drawing. We will install the work ourselves by positioning the elements of the work on site, marking the anchor points, drilling and placing the anchors as we install the work. We will probably use mechanical, rawl type, masonry anchors,with oversize epoxy-set anchors to be used as back up (to replace any bad mechanical anchors). We will be happy to work with Kent to ensure that the installation is integrated well with the final details of the masonry work adjacent to the niches where the artwork will be installed. i EXHIBIT A,page 2/3 Kent City Hall Seismic Mitigation Artwork Budget TIMELINE At this time we can schedule fabrication of this work for early 2004.
