Mike Mollett and the L.A. Mudpeople also entertained children and gave them objects made from found materials along the walkways and banks. The Mudpeople have perfomed more than 40 walkabout/adventures since 1989, and were “visited” by Huell Howser on KCET.

“There It Is: Take It” were the few words spoken by LA Water Department head William Mulholland, as the first water gushed through the Los Angeles Aqueduct from the Owens Valley. John Hawk recreates this sleight-of hand miracle with his mysteriously suspended faucet. Hawk is a video artist and musician.

 

Loaves and Fishes – Suzanne Siegel linked Mulholland fishing in the natural river to its present day industrial site use such as the nearby Weber Bakery. Stenciled fish transformed up the bank into slices of bread. Siegel is an assemblage artist and teacher.

Thanks to Herb Siegel, Deborah Kashinsky, Agnes and Giovanni of Weber's Bakery.
