Atwater Village

The LA River illustrates the struggle of Man vs Nature...but in such a way that it almost seems a joke. Here we have a river by it's nature and it's history has defined and really created Los Angeles, a city that is also created by man. A fence that seems to be built to keep plants away from the water source, a tree that beckons to the birds that prefer the order of power lines, plants that somehow force their way through the concrete channels of the river, the river that attempts to cleanse itself of the tons of garbage that is dumped into it by man...
