"Community as Family" |
|
| |
Imagine a
community that was functioning as a healthy family - where each individual was
encouraged to be fully self expressed and to be the best that they could be,
where each member was looking out for other family members with encouragement
and support, where the entire family worked as one to create a nurturing and
fulfilling life for all. What a joy that
would be.
This
sculpture is intended to be a playful symbol for just such a community. The varied color and form of the figures
symbolize the diverse make up of the community. The rainbow colors are a symbol
of an inclusive community. The Circle
represents the unity and the unified voice of a community coming together to
create this place that nurtures everyone and that everyone can be proud of.
The
sculpture would be made of painted aluminum elements bolted together and to a concrete
base.
