Energized by Art is a pilot project that was the brainchild of Cupertino-based
Hongyun Art School.
Several painted utility boxes were the result of a contest held by the city’s fine arts commission and the art school. Tommy Suriwong, who co-owns the school with his wife, Hongyun, said the school had been working with the city to assist with the annual Earth Day festival, so using art to help further a worthy cause seemed natural.
This art box features a small girl with a watering can taking care of her flowers, plants and trees, presumably with recycled water. The top side has hand prints from the young artists who created this box.
