Artist Kelton Osborn dedicates public artwork at Carla Madison Recreation Center

DENVER, CO - OCTOBER 18: Artist Kelton Osborn stand in front of his new art installation entitled "Aegis:Shield/Protection after its dedication outside of the Carla Madison Recreation Center on October 18, 2018 in Denver, Colorado. The piece is the final of three pieces that were commissioned for the recreation center the bears the name of the former Denver city councilwoman who died at 54 from cancer. Osborn said of the piece that he was drawn by the lure of Colfax Avenue and the history of transportation along the corridor. Though Osborn did not know Madison his research into the project revealed much about her personality and character. The whimsical outdoor artwork was inspired in part by the late councilwoman's love of the color orange as well as the surrounding neighborhood. The artwork consists of a series of suspended aluminum rings that interplay with the architecture of the recreation center's south facade. The rings were designed with a sense of suspension and floating as well as to create a light pattern within the breezeway of the building. The shadows and patterns change with the light of the day and move as the sun follows its path throughout the seasons says the artist. (Photo by Helen H. Richardson/The Denver Post via Getty Images)
