The City of Johnson City, TN is seeking qualifications from artists or art teams for the commission of a sculptural fountain to be placed in a pond within a newly developed wetland park.

THE PURPOSE OF THESTORMWATER BASIN / WETLAND PARK PROJECT: As part of the redevelopment of the West Walnut Street corridor, a business district between East Tennessee State University and downtown Johnson City, a former business complex was demolished to accommodate a new park designed to alleviate flooding and improve water quality. Storm related flooding is a major concern for area residents and business owners in this area. This project, with a primary goal of stormwater mitigation and storage, will capture surface water, treat it efficiently and discharge it into Brush Creek. As Brush Creek is an impaired stream with causes such as E. coli and sedimentation/siltation, the infusion of treated surface water will be beneficial to the overall water quality of the creek and surrounding areas. The wetland park will include a storm pond for water storage, and the sculptural fountain will be located at this site.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The City of Johnson City is seeking a sculptural fountain design that celebrates ecological restoration, biodiversity, and the return of a tranquil, natural oasis in the midst of a busy urban corridor. The fountain is also intended to serve afunctional purpose in aerating the pond in which it will be placed, improving water quality and the health of aquatic life. Artists will have the option to provide either both the sculptural component and the fountain or the sculptural component only. If only the sculpture is provided, the City will select a fountain and will work with the artist to place it along with the sculpture. Artists who include the fountain must offer an aerating fountain as opposed to a decorative fountain, or include a combination of the two.

The pond will be fed by water from a spring that once belonged to one of the first families to settle in the Johnson City area. Through natural water filtration and erosion control in the wetland park, the water flowing through this area is expected to be greatly improved, thereby creating an environment where more wetland species may thrive. Shade trees will also be planted along the waterways, cooling the water temperature and providing more oxygen to sustain aquatic life. After this period of ecological restoration, it is hoped that indicator species such as frogs, salamanders, turtles, and waterbirds such as the Great Blue Heron will occupy this area, signifying positive changes in the overall health of the natural environment. The fountain design should be inspired by this narrative and should in turn inspire the viewer to reflect upon the importance of water quality in our community. Please view the complete project description at the application link.

ELIGIBILITY: This opportunity is open to all professional artists over the age of 18 with previous public sculpture experience. Artists must reside within the United States.

Christine Dreher is a visual artist from Germany, based in Berlin.

In her paintings, she explores processes of form creation and form dissolution. Through gestural, flat, translucent or opaque applications of paint or also involving washouts she creates relationships between different layers of color. These stratifications generate spatial depth and point to the process of interaction in which the concept of linear time is suspended. Her panels capture snapshots of this ongoing process.

Tectonic and geomorphological phenomena and movements within the landscape serve as sources of inspiration for her. On a metaphorical level as well, her images are a negotiation with processes of form-creation and with the forces that act to bring something into appearance. Last but not least, the artist makes use of fleeting physiological afterimages that appear on retina with closed eyes or just before falling asleep at the end of the day to further develop her work.

More works by the artist can be found at: https://www.christinedreher.de/

Alix Perrin is a French visual artist whose practice is rooted in the exploration of the subtle interactions between nature, memory, and the photographic process. Through a series of alternative techniques, primarily anthotype, cyanotype, and monotype, she captures the traces left by the plant world, transforming each plant she encounters into a silent witness of the environment. By using light and plant-derived pigments, Alix creates images that reveal the fragility and beauty of natural elements while emphasizing their connection to time and memory.

Her projects, often rooted in artist residencies and site-specific interventions, resonate with a profound reflection on the transformation of matter and history. In her work, the landscape becomes a space of resonance, where each imprint, each photograph, is a poetic response to the traces left by both humans and nature itself.

In addition to her international exhibitions, such as those at the Rencontres Photographiques in Arles and the Promenades Photographiques in Blois, Alix Perrin has been awarded several prizes, including the Prix Clim’art 2024 and the Prix Mark Grosset-SAIF 2023. Her work invites meditation on the fragility of our environment and the way in which art can make invisible stories visible—stories often forgotten in the folds of time.

2017, I spent two months on a scholarship in Seyðisfjörður, in eastern Iceland. I was fascinated by the landscape and weather in general—and in particular, by the way climatic and geological phenomena, along with the region’s topography, unexpectedly shifted my personal perspective. This led to a subtly altered perception of time—one I had never questioned before.

For instance, I had always assumed that stones are ancient and rocks unchanging. But discovering that some of the rocks in Iceland are actually younger than I am shook the foundations of my everyday worldview—much like the ground I was walking on. Of course, I knew in theory that volcanic activity creates new rock, but I hadn’t anticipated how deeply the direct experience of Iceland’s unique landscape would affect me. I am determined to further explore and expand on this experience during my time in Skagaströnd.
