Today, I’m joined by mixed-media artist Mildred Howard to discuss how her inspiration for public art is shaped by consideration of the community and the history of the location. If you’re familiar with the Bay Area, you’ve probably seen some of Mildred’s work and not even realized it. She describes the story behind one of her recent installations called Frame in Hunter’s Point, as well as three major pieces that she’s currently working on.
