Urban Oases # 2

As part of my continuing occasional 'Urban Oases" series I thought I would take a moment to ponder a very interesting art installation that has been floating in Boston's Fort Point Channel. The platform (literally and figuratively) that artist Heidi Kayser has been using for her on-going, continually-changing work called "The Remodeling Project" is a small square floating dock, anchored in the Fort Point Channel in Boston.

The work itself has gone through a number of revisions and attracted media attention, including this piece in the Boston Globe. Personally, I have enjoyed seeing it each morning on my way to work so I thought I would feature it today, and besides, any piece of art that involves a kayak in the process deserves to be recognized.
