The artist who spent months in a tower on the University Bridge

Have you ever taken a close look at the University Bridge? Specifically those little towers on either side? Earlier this year, depending on which one you looked at, you might have seen a person hanging out. Maybe you waved at her.    That was Vivian Cho. She was one of two people that Seattle picked to serve as this year’s Bridge Artists in Residence.   It’s a program that the city runs annually. Artists are invited to hang out in a bridge tower for months, either on the Fremont or the University Bridge. At the end of these stints, they showcase art that they created during their residencies.  Vivian's artwork went up at King Street Station in early June.... so we took a trip back to November, when we visited her in the bridge tower studio.  Guest: Vivian Cho, one of Seattle's Bridge Artists in Residence Related links:  Big News from the Bridges: Meet the 2025 Bridge Artists in Residence! - Art Beat Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!
