hanging in the lake city branch library....worth the drive (or bus ride)

 

The building includes artwork by Portland artist Linda Haworth, who created 71 cast glass panels from hand-carved clay molds. (Haworth and Seattle artist Jane Grafton held a community workshop and asked patrons to bring in the objects they collected, which inspired the finished work.)

 

Linda Haworth received her bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts in Ceramics from Northern Arizona University. She has worked for 25 years as a potter, sculptor and artisan. In 1990, she became more involved in community-building through art, serving on a citizen’s transportation advisory committee and studying the concept of "livable communities." Her past work includes a series of public art commissions for parks and transit sites.
