7 Minutes in Heaven Scottsdale is an installation meant to evoke the same mystery as a stand alone installation as when I am present as an active participant. The space represents the mystery between reality, fantasy and expectation.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (Dec. 18, 2015) – Scottsdale Public Art introduces 11 Miles of Color: Repurposing Spring Crossing on view at the Gallery @ The Library, Scottsdale Civic Center, beginning Jan. 8 through April 30, 2016.

Spring Crossing was made with nearly 11 miles of 35 different colors of UV-resistant, acrylic braided ribbon, commercially known as Sunbrella. As a part of Walker’s proposal, it was his wish to have the materials of Spring Crossing repurposed for a second use after de-installation. Eleven artists of different disciplines from across Arizona were selected: Jeffrey DaCosta, Amber Doe, Valerie Fair, Sarah Hurwitz, Francine Kavanaugh, Kris Manzaneres, Sharie Monsam, Courtney Richter, Shawn Rost, Katherine Leigh Simpson and Kristin Wolfe.

Thursday, Jan. 14, Opening Reception, 5–7 p.m.

Meet artists, discuss the exhibition and enjoy refreshments. Free to the public.
