Seattle's latest public art installment is making quite the splash. Mexican American artist Angie Hinojos has rolled out "Water Songs," a captivating new sculpture that has folks talking. Part of the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture's FLOW: Art Along the Ship Canal initiative, Hinojos' work is now on display for the world to see at Stone Way N, nestled between N 34th St and N 35th St. 

Hinojos, with her multilayered identity as a public artist, educator, and advocate, wears a lot of hats. This UC Berkeley alum, carrying the torch for social justice through her art, apparently knows no bounds. Indeed, she is a fixture in Seattle's cultural sphere, co-founding Centro Cultural Mexicano and holding positions like Chair of the Washington State Commission on Hispanic Affairs. According to a Seattle Office of Arts & Culture interview, Hinojos intertwines her background in architecture with her artistic vision, crafting sculptural pieces that echo with a resonance of the surrounding architectural environment.

Hinojos is an influential voice on the Board of Directors for 4Culture and the past Chair of the Redmond Arts and Culture Commission. Melding her passion for history and place with a drive to uplift marginalized voices, Hinojos' "Water Songs" channels the artist's desire to share untold stories through public art, and it's a sight you won't want to miss.

 "Water Songs" is a story in itself, a physical representation of dialogues too often left out of the mainstream narrative.
