I’m Atsuo, I made these sculpture in 2006.
Concerning “Stray cat”, it’s not perfect installation yet. I asked to the Public Art Saint Paul when I installed it that a base stone which is under a cat should be filled up soil till half. Of course a concrete base is buried under the ground. It’s more safety and natural.
I don’t know why they haven’t done that yet.

I hope Saint Paul city completes perfectly installing as soon as possible.

Comment on Lake Plaza Mural by Alejandro Trujillo, Gustavo Lira & Others by Retro Vertigo

A little background on this one: The majority of this mural was painted by the ArTrujillo crew — Wayne Grimsrud, Sarah Stone, Americo Juan, Karlee Mariel Felger, Gustavo Lira and Alejandro Trujillo in summer of 2003. It is roughly 80′ long and over 20′ tall. Due to some unrelated legal issues with property owner, this mural was deemed indefinitely “in-progress”. In addition to the incomplete Mexican market scene, there was another 80′ to the design representing the Somali community that never actually made it to the wall.

Inside that same mall – the gorgeous ceiling mural, all of the the vendor signs and all of the other hand-painted elements – were also done by various individuals from this same crew.

There are photos of that project in progress available (as well as some other ArTrujillo related projects from that area). Feel free to contact me if you’re interested in them.
