New art piece on loan in Hillwood Park

Balloons by Will Schlough
on loan in Hillwood Park

David Francis, Shoreline public art coordinator, reports that there is new public art on loan at Hillwood Park, 331 NW 193rd St, in Shoreline.

Will Schlough has installed “Balloons,” a three-part sculpture made of brightly painted concrete and a repurposed fire hydrant. 

The sculpture evokes themes of functionality and whimsy as it plays with expectation and scale. 

Schlough is the same artist behind the Richmond Highlands Gateway Mural at Spiro’s Pizza. (See previous article)

“Balloons” will be on display through 2020. More about the artist here.
