Gran Pelicano
Installed in City of Puertecitos, Baja California, Mexico
This artwork was commissioned by the Mayor of Puertecitos, Clara Orozco, and installed for the City of Puertecitos at the entrance gate to the resort town. The sculpture is in a sense a shrine to the wild habitat that thrives in Puertecitos which includes a great variety of birds and many varieties of pelicans. Clara Orozco in collaboration with artist Sergey Gornushkin are working on creating an environmental protection message through large-scale public art to make everyone aware of the importance of a thriving ecosystem.
