WHY CONCRETE PAPAYA? In my art I often explore the juxtaposition of organic elements and manufactured ones. I had been toiling to find a memorable and fun business name for a while - we all know how tricky that is! Then a few years ago while cutting up a bright papaya on a beautifully constructed concrete countertop the name hit me. Fabricated and natural, mingling in a visually enticing way. And I was done with the search.
