During a weekend walk around Del Mar, I paused to look at two bronze sculptures on Camino del Mar.
The first sculpture, by Del Mar artist Maidy Morhous, is titled Journey.
The realistic frame of a “hollow” suitcase was cast in bronze. This public art was installed upon a bench of granite at the corner of 11th Street in February 2020.
Maidy Morhous created another sculpture titled Baby Boomers Google. It depicts a stack of books topped with an apple, and had been placed on the sidewalk in front of the Del Mar Library. Tragically, it appeared to me that someone had stolen that sculpture from its granite slab.
UPDATE!
After doing a little more research, I now see that Baby Boomers Google is presently being repaired after vandals damaged it. I’ll post photos of it here should I run across it in the future!
A River of Time is a beautiful abstract sculpture that stands in the garden at the west entrance to the Del Mar Library. This public art was created by renowned San Diego artist James T. Hubbell.
A River of Time was unveiled in 1999.

UPDATE!
Baby Boomers Google reappeared! I took photos and posted them here!
