Two Works of Public Art Combine Forces on One Block in Arlington: Utility Box by Eileen de Rosas and Mural by Sophy Tuttle

After posting about Sophy Tuttle’s memorial mural for the eagle named MK, I returned for better photos. Then, suddenly, I saw how close it was to the utility box Eileen de Rosas painted some years earlier. Both artworks feature graceful plants and purposeful birds. Both are great reminders of how artists can convey the vitalities of nature on utilitarian structures not conceived with art in mind.

Eileen de Rosas’ Art Brings Life to Brick in Arlington

My January journey to this temporary art, up since mid-December, inspired me to track down information, stories, and colorful images that are best enjoyed on Eileen de Rosas’ website under Public Art.
