Field notes
The Hydrolith write-up specifies high-fire sculpture-body clay for the Bay Area’s wet, occasionally freezing climate and composite concrete-and-ceramic blocks fixed with stainless-steel pins and epoxy. A separate Native Son account recounts Warren sketching concepts after encountering the project site on the way to a telemarketing job, then competing with veteran artist John Pugh for the commission.
