"Watershed Wall" – Green Street Garage, Ithaca, New York

Watershed Wall is a clay tile mural created by students of the Ithaca City School District. The fifty-five foot mural was installed adjacent to the newly named "Butterfly Alley" in downtown Ithaca. It represents an aerial view of the creeks feeding Cayuga Lake. The clay tiles represent land and the lake rocks represent water, celebrating art and nature.

The students made their textural impressions using a combination of natural objects and other items that represent their heritage and experiences. After the class collaboration, the sections were cut into tiles and kiln-fired, stained and fired again.
