Parking in Color - Fort Worth

We spent 5 weeks in Fort Worth finishing my newest piece, "Parking in Color." We worked 12-16 hour days in high wind, heavy rain and hot sun. It was fantastic! Check out pictures of the installation process and the final piece below and lt me know what you think!

"Parking in Color" - Ft. Worth, TX opening April 2009!

Construction has begun on Christopher Janney's latest project!

Christopher Janney's latest architecture project is to create an immersive sound/light environment for the new Fort Worth Convention Center Parking Garage. The piece will integrate colored glass, light, and a 400 foot Fin sculpture attached to the south side of the building. A score of environmental music and sounds indigenous to Ft. Worth in the elevator/stair tower (many of which were selected by residents of Fort Worth) will add an audio dimension to the piece.

The Garage is scheduled to open on April 2, and Christopher's construction
team is already busy working on components of the piece in his Lexington
studio.

Check out the photos below to see the work in progress.
