Upon entering the welcoming room of the Cedar River Watershed Education Center, you will immediately notice the floor. There you will see the stylized root patterns that have been sandblasted and stained onto the floor.
Artist: Dan Corson
Artist's Statement: " The artistic interpretation of a cross section of vine maple tree roots serves to bring the snaking patterns of nature inside the Cedar River Watershed's Welcoming Room. Continuing the root metaphor-holding and sustaining a tree (life), while extracting and carrying the water to the plant, the pattern also reminds us of the dendritic patterns the water makes as it seeks the lowest point, as well as evoking the site's namesake, Rattlesnake Lake."
