Cliff Dwelling: A skyscraper habitat for Peregrine Falcons
1993. Lithograph and watercolor on paper, 24" x 40".  Proposal for a sculpture that provides nesting habitat for peregrine falcons, which already have made their homes in most North American cities. The glass skin of a skyscraper is pulled in to make room for the overhanging ledges of artificial rock. Inside, space is provided for public viewing. Unlike a zoo, the birds are not fed or caged. Here the people are confined. The falcons are free.
