FROST PARK: HOURGLASS


"Hourglass" by Troy's Work Table . Frost Park Chalk Off 7:19 at Tollefson Plaza. Friday 08 August 2014.

Frost Park chalked "in exile" for season 7, episode 19. Actually, the Frost Park Chalkies were invited by the Tacoma-Pierce County Chamber of Commerce to chalk at their annual picnic. The Chamber provided prizes for first, second, and third place, as voted on by their members.

Troy's Work Table and The Child chalked as a team, providing individual pieces, but presenting them together.

We took first place, squeaking out a victory by two votes. Our prize was a beer and craft root beer basket.

"Hourglass" was inspired by its two predecessors, "Clocktopus" and "Aquariums (Color Study)," as well as the diamond-shaped concrete panels of downtown Tacoma's Tollefson Plaza. And, as with "Clocktopus," it was a meditation upon time and death.
