Rosa Villanueva

Builds river-stone cairns that double as instruments when the wind moves.

Rosa VillanuevaUvalde, TX
Sculpture & InstallationsWorkshops

Rosa Villanueva works in the language of balance. Her installations along the river trail are stacked from stones the Frio itself rounded over ten thousand years, and several of them sing — tuned hollows that catch the canyon wind.

She'll lead a free cairn-building workshop on Saturday morning. No experience, no tools, just patience and a good eye for which stone wants to go next.
