portland horse project.

the portland horse project begun by artist, scott wayne indiana.

it all began with an artist named scott wayne indiana. he knew about the horse rings in many portland sidewalks and thought it was a shame that we don't tie our horses to them anymore. scott decided to change that and tied his first pony to a horse ring in the fall of 2005 in the revitalized pearl district in northwest portland. after a few months, he expanded the horse project and asked for some help. now these horses are showing up all over portland. you can find them in most parts of portland now.
