Mountlake Terrace Freeway Transit Station, Washington State, 2011
Commissioned by SoundTransit, Washington State

Set onto the platform is a long, voluptuous bronze form, marked by natural and manmade scars. It refers to the local landscape, the history of logging, the soaring trees of the local parks and neighbourhoods - and offers passengers a place to sit, perhaps recalling memories of sitting in a clearing in the forest.

The bronze rests on concentric rings set into the concrete platform: these narrow bands of stainless steel are a sleek graphic abstraction of tree rings, or a suggestion of ‘centre’.
