This place is only open on specific days so sadly I wasn't able to go inside and see the skyspace.
Dan Flavin
Visiting this place and being told you're not allowed to take pictures is the reason why I had never heard nor seen of this beautiful place before. The light installation is splendid and the windows in the ceiling are just gorgeous and it adds to the visit even though I admit I enjoyed starring at the ceiling being able to see the sky from the inside.

Public Art Proposal
Mexican
Restaurant Mural
As a
frequent Mexican restaurant customer and fellow Mexican, I have always been
intrigued by the lovely murals on the walls and have always told myself I would
do one of those. Using acrylic paints, I plan on doing a 3ft x 4ft mural,
budgeting at about $20 per square foot, totaling to around $240. I would like
to seek funding by asking for sponsors from my supporters because I would like
to do this work free for the restaurant. I feel that this would be a great way
to support a small company and give customers something nice to look at.
Being
that it would be a small company I would just have to speak with the owner of
the restaurant to get the approval.
The
idea of this public art is to show support to small companies and connect with
my Mexican heritage. This is something I have always wanted to do and I feel
that it would be a great first step in making public art pieces.

The process of how these were made was really interesting as were the pieces. They were really cool!
Light Art
This is a light art piece I did last semester in sculpture. I made it with coper wiring a tissue paper like material that I found and some small strand lighting.

I have always loved this piece and have wanted to step off the edge into the side parts.
Buffalo Bayou Park
I don't remember how many of these we said there were in class but we found two of them! I am curious as to how they were put in the ground.
Tolerance by Jaume Plensa
I have driven by these many times before but never went to look at them. They are really beautiful and I didn't realize how many of them were there.

Sadly I was unable to stop and get a better quality photo but I absolutely love these sculptures!! I’ll be moving right down the street from these beauties at the end of the month and I am very excited to be so close to some of my favorite pieces of public art in Houston!
Twilight Epiphany
part 2 Blaffer Show
Unfortunately I was not able to go inside and see the whole installation but what was visible was still pleasing. I love a piece that I can take something from and be able to have something tangible to remember it by.
Dan Flavin installation
I went to see the Dan Flavin installation it was cool but you don't really have much else to do except walk around for maybe 3 min and then dip. There was no one in there so it could be a cool place to chill if they allow you to sit in there. They do have events here that would be cool to check out.

Just a few of my favorite pieces from the the show on Friday night! The top left is a beautiful painting that I couldn’t keep my eyes off, I’m really into mustaches and seventies vibes. The top right is a print that was very intriguing to me and last but not least the bottom would be in the sculpture realm, this was at the top of my list as far as favorites go. I love the wood back drop that these ceramic ears have been mounted on.
