Darlyn Susan Yee Concept Chosen For Claremont Packing House Lobby Artwork

(PRWEB) May 8, 2006--Darlyn Susan Yee has been chosen to create the Main Lobby artwork for the Claremont Packing House in the Claremont Village. Her fiber and mixed media works have recently been exhibited in Los Angeles, Laguna Beach, Santa Ana, and Pomona, California.

Mimicking the undulating patterns found in the corrugated metal sawtooth roof, Darlyn will create a series of vertical columns suspended at various points in the roof, X-bracing and I-beams. The knit surfaces of each column will suggest the familiarity of home and soften the industrial forms. The various multicolored yarns symbolize many cultures coming together to share our passions for the arts.

Once a hub for Claremont’s citrus industry, the Packing House is now being renovated into the City's largest complex of restaurants, shops and lofts. When it opens in late 2006, it will feature two anchor restaurants, a jazz nightclub, a microbrewery, a museum, 15,000 square feet of retail space, several office suites, 17 high-end loft apartments, public art installations, and an outdoor events plaza.
