Sunset Hammock, a monumental environmental public art commission by Margi Glavovic Nothard, located in Sunset Point Park, Tamarac, Florida raises awareness about the critical role of the Everglades within the ecological balance of South Florida. The art project renders saturated moments in time as the day reveals itself, increasing its intensity in color, view, and connectivity to the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States. This concept for a public art sculpture juxtaposes the expansiveness of the Everglades and infrastructure with a 200’ long modular rhythmic red aluminum structure and 20 by 3 foot community periscope for public viewing of the Everglades. Sunset Hammock incorporates the adjacent wetland with a Sunset community park and includes an educational children’s art program in collaboration with Young at Art Museum. This project has been awarded an NEA Our Town Grant.
