Beliz Brother Installation

  Seattle artist Beliz Brother has created a sculpture that stands in front of Fort Worth's Bob Bolen Security Complex that pays tribute to the Fire and Police Departments that are housed in the building which is a converted factory complex. By cutting the shapes of department patches for each of those services from departments around the country in huge slabs of core-10 steel she has created a tribute that will change constantly, with the position of the sun and the shadows it creates and the oxidizing effects of the weather on the material. The two sides of the chevron are specific to each service creating a tribute to those individuals that serve their communities.
