About This Piece

Kissing Birds, is a free-standing steel sculptural archway trailhead creating a graceful transition space from the ELK programming patio to the nature trail.

The eco-acoustic sound element; the community engagement aspect of this sculpture, is the creative process of the ELK community connecting with their ecological surroundings – incorporating the truth of technology with surrounding realities to generate interconnectedness. Two ELK student participants worked with professional musician and producer Shawn King, to record sounds of the environment while participating in ELK outdoor programming. The students mixed their sounds to create a sound scape composition that will be available to listen to at the ELK site as well as on-line.
