Since taking office in 2005, one year after the last Rail~Volution Conference was hosted in Los Angeles, I have worked to ensure that we take advantage of the transformative potential of investments in public transportation and rail. In doing so, our great City has opened or extended four major transit lines, with much more in the works. Furthermore, in 2008 the voters of Los Angeles County passed Measure R, which will provide more than $10 billion for new fixed-guideway transit projects in the County. This investment will lay the groundwork for our communities to become more transit-oriented. Transit orientation means making land use, economic development, urban design, housing, and transportation decisions that enhance and support the economic, environ- mental, and social benefits of transit use for all Angelenos. By furthering the City’s orientation to our transit corridors, we can reconnect a Los Angeles that has been fragmented and divided by single-minded approaches based exclusively on the accommodation of the private automobile, and help realize the potential for a higher quality of life for all residents. What we learn in the process can be exported to communities across the country, just as we are constantly learning from other efforts. During Rail~Volution’s stay in Los Angeles, I hope its members also take some time to get to know our many vibrant neighborhoods and communities as well as share their lessons learned from elsewhere.

Custom Answers 2) Statement Regarding ThemeArtist must provide a written statement (up to 150 words) as part of their submittal explaining how their sculpture addresses and illustrates the theme.&nbsp;&nbsp; Art is like music, it stimulates the mind and the senses. With this in mind I build my pieces with emphasis on space, form, color, line, rhythm, and content. Artists are image makers and like the world's antennas, they feel, think and express reality. Momentarily I focus on "defining our spaces", like building a new society, using color, form and line as the building blocks. In addition to my public art projects I have developed a series of "color molecule" sculptures. The sculptures represent an homage to the smallest building block of life, the molecules. The theme is called "metamorphosis" which means change, and I see my work fitiing to the theme, as we all have metamorphed from molecules to a human being, so honoring the smallest entity in us seems allright. The work has semi circular motions, which gives a light feeling. The piece is 14' x 6;' x 6'. It is powder coated, the main color being turquise with colored glass inserted in the molecules. When the light shines through 3) Art Installation and De-Installation PlanPlease reference the attached site plan and provide an installation and de-installation plan and requirements for the attachment of the Artwork and the type of hardware to be used for the attachment.
