Wichita, KS.

2002

Time Passages was selected as the aesthetic theme for the Kellogg/Oliver Interchange in Wichita, Kansas. The design incorporates text and imagery into 36 cast-stone modular bas-relief panels, arranged in various combinations to span 16,000 square feet of retaining walls and a vehicular bridge. Elements include quotations about the passage of time, monumental Roman clocks, a 25-foot-tall working sundial, and oversized leaves that appear to scatter in the wind and alongside passing vehicles. A quotation cast into the parapet fascia of the bridge offers a thoughtful reminder to commuters driving beneath: “The journey is the reward.”
