Design and Build 2025- Tessellation in Bloom

Seven emerging artist interns came together over the summer, through our annual Design and Build Summer Internship Program, to collaboratively create several unique, site-specific installations for MOA’s Marjorie Park in only 8 weeks! Emerging artists worked under the direction of our 2025 Artist Fellow, Erica Rawson, and Resource Artist, Walter Ware, with additional assistance by Oliver Cruz.

The theme provided to the artists in 2025 was “sacred geometry: platonic solids.” Installations will be on temporary view through winter of 2025.

Emerging Artists:

The creation of our 2025 projects were generously supported through a facilities partnership with the University of Colorado Denver, College of Arts and Media and Metropolitan State University of Denver. Artworks were created within the sculpture fabrication studios on Auraria campus.
