About
Cameron Hockenson‘s environmental artwork is concerned with the vernacular landscape and issues of biocultural diversity. His sculptures and site-specific installations address place as an outgrowth of dwelling, collecting, and memory.
Hockenson built this “bird condominium” over the course of a three-month-long residency at Montalvo, collaborating with fellow resident Robert Davis and Montalvo’s then-garden curator, Delmar McComb, to enrich the original installation with electronic sound and a bird garden.
Reactivated for The Art & Architecture of Maybe, Control Tower invites visitors into a whimsical space where art, nature, and architecture converge.
Location
These work is permanently installed on the left side of the Front Lawn.
