Carved Sidewalk

These stone sidewalk carvings were done about twenty years ago by an Asian artist. You can find them in the East Village and Soho. Does anyone know the name of the artist, or remember anything about this project?
Update: Flickrite krispy suggests that the artist is Ken Hiratsuka. I think he’s right.
