About

Greenmeme is the vision of artists Freya Bardell and Brian Howe. Together, they have been creating site-specific public artwork since 2005. Qualities of material, context and form begin anew with each project. Their investigations into the history of both the surrounding culture and environment reveals unique ways in which each project can work to raise awareness of these qualities through sculpture, performance and community engagement. Since coming together their work has continued to range from smaller locally-focused commissions to creating projects on a national and international scale.

We're currently working on these projects...

This artwork is part of the Riverside Dr Bridge Improvement program and will be sited in the first roundabout to built in the City of Los Angeles, in Council District 1. Stone sculptures are cut with faces of individuals from the community, randomly chosen over a period of the next 2 years. The sculptures capture stormwater coming from the bridge and process it through a series of fountains, where it is then filtered, stored and distributed throughout the landscape. Awarded by LADCA and commissioned by The City of Los Angeles, the project is now under construction and is estimated to be open 2014.
