XYLEM | Kinder High School for the Performing and Visual Arts | Houston, TX

2019 | Exotic Hardwood | 40’ x 5’ high

To celebrate their generous donors, the Kinder High School for the Performing and Visual Arts commissioned a large art piece to inset in to curved feature wall of their new facility. This donor wall is a 40’ long by 5’ tall wood construction made from over a dozen varieties of hardwood with a spectrum of colors, both domestic and exotic. The long, curved surface features a waveform, crested with a single stainless-steel winding rod. Starting out at one end with an active wiggle, the line gradually evens out to a straight line at the other side. Xyxlem combines the visual landscape of fine arts with the changing patterns and resonance of performance.
