Olive View Restorative Care Center

Six fused glass panels depicting the namesake of the Olive View Restorative Care Village. In the early 20th Century, the olive tree was a staple of agricultural production in Sylmar but I chose it because we associate it with peace, reconciliation and healing. The panels loosely depict a solitary tree in variations of Southern California skies at different times of the day, with smog, etc.

Made in fused glass by way of granulated frit, silkscreen, sand blasting, and profile cuts. We “grew” the tree, generative.
