Allen Peterson

Allen Peterson, an artist from Birmingham, Alabama completed a residency sponsored by the Coleman Center and the municipalWORKSHOP during March 2005. Peterson worked on site at Cherokee Park, repairing and cleaning a section of the park that in the past had been the York public swimming pool. Allen created two new works for the site: a “diving board” bench, located on the edge of the large pool, and a hive-like iron tile piece sited inside of the former kiddy pool.
