Episode Synopsis

Drive or walk around Chattanooga and you are bound to do a double take as you see something that is both odd and capitivating... Blue Trees. For the past two weeks our downtown trees have been colored blue in a new art installation created by artist Konstantin Dimopoulos. Kon is a world renown artist, known for his ability to highlight social and environmental issues through art. In this episode we discuss the vision and meaning behind the Blue Trees and we are joined by Public Art Chattanooga's Katelyn Kirnie for a conversation on the importance of public art for our community.
