sagebrush lullaby

The Sagebrush Lullaby, a wall mounted metal art piece with surface patina 9’ x 8’ x 2”,  is at the  entrance to the emergency area of this Children’s Hospital in Portland.

The artwork presents an upside down sagebrush, suggesting a sheltering house form. Within the ubiquitous sage of eastern Oregon are images of threatened and vulnerable species, such as the pygmy rabbit (now extinct in the wild) and sage grouse.
