Bluwater Crossing Incorporates Artistic Clock Tower into Mixed-Use Development

Press Release. Dated 02/03/2009

The clock tower is built in the heart of the village courtyard. The clock tower will not only serve as a unifying landmark for the neighborhood, but it is also intended to remind residents of the importance of time. Many buyers are no doubt naturally time-conscious consumers, given the Bluwater Crossing’s position as a community that allows residents to enjoy a more balanced lifestyle and to break free from the grind of a daily commute.

The 18-feet-tall Clock Tower follows a typical obelisk shape and the images in the corten steel panels of the Clock Tower are inspired by Mr. Alonzo-Barkigia’s memories of growing up in San Diego.  Mr. Alonzo-Barkigia described the images as “California Aquatic,” ranging from fish and whales to cliffs and surfers.

“I wanted the images to blend into one another and lend a sense of abstraction to the work by blurring the images,” Alonzo-Barkigia says. ”This generally leads to a more open interpretation by the viewer, and sometimes the viewer is surprised by finding something that he or she didn't see immediately.”

“For those who live by the water, the ocean is always calling,” Mr. Alonzo-Barkigia continues. “It is a place for meditation, adventure, and rejuvenation. Filled with beauty and danger, the deep blue waters of the Pacific spark our imagination.”

About the Artist
Luis Alonzo-Barkigia was born in Tijuana, Mexico, and grew up in San Diego, California. His bicultural upbringing has been instrumental in the development of his work. Currently working with Diana Lowenstein Fine Arts Gallery in Miami, Florida, Mr. Alonzo-Barkigia is paying homage to his years growing up in Southern California. He conceived the Bluwater Crossing Clock Tower with two points in mind: artistic distinction for Bluwater Crossing and a contemporary design that is both functional and on par within its architectural context.
