Public art project located on 400 South, between 900 and 300 West, Salt Lake City, Utah | City Council Districts 2 & 4
This project will improve the connectivity for those walking or using active transportation (bikes, scooters, rollerblades, etc.) and mobility devices across the 400 South Viaduct, an important corridor linking Salt Lake City’s East and West sides.
The commissioned artist or artist-led team will be required to work in collaboration and in consultation with the SLC Public Art Program, the SLC Engineering and Transportation Divisions, and the contracted engineering design consultant to become an integral part of the viaduct’s design team. The selected artist or artist-led team’s primary task will be to co-create a viaduct that rewards and celebrates its users by identifying or designing aesthetic elements that can be integrated into the project’s overall infrastructure.
COMMISION BUDGET: $53,000 (total budget)
