About the Sculpture: The sculpture is really an "anti-monument" in many respects. Monuments usually depict strength, valor, beauty, and durability. This "monument" depicts damage, fragility, sorrow, and, most of all, inadequacy -- both in the design and materials used. Like the feelings conjured up by the typical monuments, the feelings I perceive when looking at this sculpture are common to the human experience - an experience that I believe exists beyond the purely physical. In this respect, I see beauty and hope - a restorative, supernatural kind. |
