LEE IMONEN - ODOT BRIDGE ART PROJECT

Lane sculpture instructor Lee Imonen is among the artists chosen to help the Oregon Department of Transportation develop design enhancements for the Interstate 5 Willamette River Bridge replacement project. Lee is partnering with GreenWorks and artists Adam Kuby and Suzanne Lee to design a south bank interpretive area, which includes the old Eugene Millrace, river channel restoration, and the south bank bicycle and pedestrian path, underpass and viaduct. Conceptual plans will be developed this fall and winter, and unveiled during Eugene’s First Friday Gallery Walk on Feb. 5. The artist and design teams were selected by ODOT’s design enhancement panel for the I-5 Willamette River Bridge project.
