"Mel Ristau has a masterful understanding of architectural space and the interplay of his art pieces in the three dimensional environment. The professional care, attention to detail, flexibility, and sense-of-humor that Mel demonstrated in creating and installing River Garden 1 for Scottish Rite hospital lobby at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta was outstanding. He is a delight to work with! His mobile brings smiles to the faces of our hospital visitors and staff every day."
