From their website:
Invisible Ecologies is a public art installation by Future Green Studio along the Allegheny waterfront in downtown Pittsburgh. Future Green is a design collective in Brooklyn, NY whose work is focused on the intersection of art, ecology, and urbanism. This project is in collaboration with Clear Story and is supported by Riverlife and the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust.
Invisible Ecologies seeks to reveal the latent potential for human, plant, and wildlife interaction within the constructed urban environment. Like a plant emerging through a crack in a concrete sidewalk, wildlife, too, can adapt and thrive in the harshest urban conditions.
This sculpture repositions man-made materials found in the urban environment – objects like concrete, graffiti, and discarded plastic and glass – and aggregates them into a series of structures mounted on steel pedestals.
