70 foot long sculpted concrete wall with slag glass, upcycled bottles, copper and found objects. The hand carved wall serves as a separation from the backyard to the aquaponic garden area. We considered the position of the sun while designing, it travels from east to west behind the wall throughout the day. The slag glass and bottles light up at different times of the day. There are areas for planting and we have begun to add air plants to the facade. This surreal fantasy wall was truly a dream job for our team.

The folks at AARTVARKS love to sculpt! The property is scattered with "things" to incorporate/up-cycle into our creations. We work with a variety of mediums including, concrete, wood, foam, resin, fiberglass, clay, Skratchworks, papier mache, tile, metal & glass.
