We Live Here

daniel j kirk

The artist's philosophy that plants continue to provide us all a chance to share in common experience through the appreciation of their beauty and resilience is at the heart of this piece.

About this work

The artist daniel j kirk was selected for this project because: he is familiar with the community of West Hillhurst; his leadership on WHCA’s previous successful public art project lent some continuity to this enterprise; his experience working on another Utility Box Art Project; his understanding that our history with plants has paralleled since the First Peoples who’ve made their home on these lands; and his philosophy that plants continue to provide us all a chance to share in common experience through the appreciation of their beauty and resilience.
