12 I-5 Colonnade Park, beneath I-5,
south of E. Howe St; Seattle, WA.
“John Roloff: Permanent Installation.” Located beneath the I-5 freeway
corridor that runs through Seattle’s
Eastlake neighborhood. John Roloff. An
artificial microclimate with cycling light
and intermittent rain that replicate the
light and weather conditions from each
day in 1960, the year before work began
on Interstate 5. The artist effectively
eliminates the concrete barrier created by
the road overhead, taking the area back
in time. The centerpiece of this simulated ecosystem is four densely planted
trees representing different climates and
for their relation to the color white, a
“ghostly” color meant to evoke the past
neighborhood that occupied the site. By
relating the past to the present and connecting the native climate to geographically diverse flora, The Seventh Climate
spans the elements of time and distance
and inspires the formation of new
chronological and spatial relationships.
