Sonoran Seed Pods

Sonoran Seed Pods are a group of 8 sculptures commissioned by Scottsdale Public Art from a gift by: Frank Crerie. The sculptures are made with corten steel and range in size from 3′ diameter to 8′ diameter. The idea behind the pieces was to have them all directly integrated into various sites along the hiking trail at the park. They will appear to have been in their locations for a very long time as if they erupted out of the desert. The shapes of the seed pods are based on the pods from plants that are actually growing throughout the park environment.  Sonoran Seed Pods Video ( click here )
