Checha & Cozzi

Two exotic creatures have navigated up the Mystic River to find a home at Cafe Bravo.

Created by Kovel, their bright colors bring the warmth of coral seas to a new habitat, to startle, to amuse, to provide joy.

These sculptures were inspired by diving in the sub-tropical waters off both the east and west costs of Mexico.

They also bring a message from the artist -- a reminder that their brilliant colors belong to tropical coral reefs, perhaps the most beautiful and diverse gardens of life on our planet and endangered today by pollution, changing water temperatures, cyanide fishing and careless visitors.
