“Riders” is a public artwork that evokes the rolling coastal terrain and the strong cycling culture of the region. It fits well within the broader identity of Emeryville, which has positioned itself as a compact, bike-friendly city closely connected to the waterfront landscape of the East Bay. The theme also ties into the wider identity of the San Francisco Bay Area, where cycling is both a practical mode of transportation and a deeply embedded cycling and recreational culture.
