• Manuel Regalado's Gifts • Oregon ArtsWatch (orartswatch.org) — Hillsboro artist Manuel Regalado has transformed a dying ash tree at Jackson Bottom Wetlands Preserve into "Guendanabani," a towering carving of local wildlife commissioned by the city. His journey from Oaxaca to Shute Park apartments, private forest work near Forest Park, and now public exhibitions shows how his nature-rooted art and Indigenous background are reshaping Hillsboro's public art scene.
