Seeking an artist to create a water feature for the South Wastewater Treatment Plant in Renton, Washington in conjunction with the construction of a new Administration Building. The selected artist will work with 4Culture and Wastewater Treatment personnel to research and develop the sculptural work which is to be located within an existing 52’ x 24’ rectangular pond. Located just off of the visitor parking lot, the pond is east of the new Administration Building, between the DCB Building and the Pump Building. The artist is invited to modify the pond and is strongly encouraged to utilize industrial surplus materials from the Plant in the water feature’s construction. This project presents a unique opportunity for collaboration, with Plant staff providing on-site support, expertise, and resources. Competitive applicants will have experience working collaboratively with community representatives or governmental agencies in the design and execution of artwork and portfolio examples of permanently-sited exterior sculpture, work made from recycled and reclaimed materials, or work using water as a primary material. The budget is $150,000 all inclusive. Entry fee.
