Located
very close to the Rio Grande bosque and Nature Center, the community
still has a strong connection to its agricultural heritage. Many
residents of Los Candelarias trace their lineage back over numerous
generations to the founding families.

WEST ENTRANCE |
|
|
This
sculpture representing the Rio Grande River and the acequia irrigation
system is the primary focus of our work. It provides an entry/exit
marker to the Los Candelarias Village Center on the western end of the
streetscape improvement project.

Two freestanding
sculptures representing grains are located alongside the placita at the Candelaria entrance to John Brooks Market. These continue the agricultural theme established for the project. |

On the north
side of Candelaria between 11th and Otra Vez, we incorporated sculptures
into the cast concrete retaining wall. These are also variations on the
river and agriculture themes. |
