The sundial is a time-keeping technology that is accessible to all. It is for this reason I chose to create a sundial for the People's Place Project. In a sense, the sundial is timeless, for as long as the sun continues to transit the sky this landmark will continue to tell the time of day, as well as the time of year, no batteries required. This piece is the first of what I hope will be many commissions for True North Concretions. Concrete is a remarkable medium with which to create, and the design possibilities are nearly endless. From counter tops to fireplace hearths, furniture to monuments, purely functional and/or simply decorative, if you can imagine it in stone, I can create it better in concrete.
