Location

Timberline and Horsetooth Intersection

Description

Lisa Cameron Russell’s objective for these artworks is to enhance the pedestrian and motorist experience and embody the spirit of the local geology. Three sculptural elements are located on the northeast street corner and an additional sculptural element is on the northwest corner, creating a gateway presence to the intersection design. Cameron Russell’s intention is to connect the street corridor with the view of the Front Range looking to the west of this location. The sculptural pieces are loosely based on the horizon of these local geological landmarks. The intersection design includes additional streetscape elements; including bollards and fencing that complement the native geology design.
