Via CornellCast: Video of the ‘Rooted’ art installation on Libe Slope.
ROOTED is a living community art installation that celebrates the diversity of ways people on campus stay rooted in their lives and in the community. Student and faculty volunteers planted 13,000 flower bulbs in 350 pots and moved them to Libe Slope below McGraw clock tower to spell the word, “ROOTED,” in 10-foot-tall letters.
The project was spearheaded by student artist Justin Kondrat and faculty advisor Marcia Eames-Sheavly.
