Cayuga Park: Garden of Light // Current

Tucked away under a public transit system in the city of San Francisco, you'll find a beautiful secret garden, Cayuga Park. What makes this park so unique are the striking wooden statues carved from the very trees and plants that grow there. The artist and caretaker of the park, Demetrio O. Braceros, helps us understand why he creates the art he creates.

- From an audience standpoint it's hard to watch him struggle through his interview. On a personal level its well-worth the effort. Thank you for bringing this man and his work to light. Best of luck.
