          | The Bus Stops Here is a public art initiative intended to highlight Grants Pass' newly expanded bus system.  Can good art make bus commuting cool?  We think so. Designing together at a work table, we drew, cut, assembled (and disassembled), and completed the mock-up as we conferred.  Thus the title, Conversation.  The resulting duet in aluminum (with copper pendants) is informed with a jazzy cubist aesthetic.  The syncopation of the projecting planes makes for an ever-changing gestalt of shapes, colors, solids, and voids as the viewer moves about the sculpture.
 Conversation invites conversations, and before you know it, the 'bus stops here.'
