Mark Brest van Kempen is calling attention to the creek running underneath our feet.

Working with the Seattle Parks department from 2000-2007, Brest van Kempen designed a multi-component public art project tracing the historical and present-day path of Ravenna Creek under the city streets.

For decades, Ravenna Creek was diverted into the city’s sewer system. Community efforts eventually motivated funding to restore the creek to its natural path in 2006. Through the use of signage, viewing stations and conceptual pieces, Brest van Kempen draws focus to the revitalized creek, now largely underground.
