A proposal for a monumental stainless steel sculpture for an urban environment.
At first glance, the sculpture appears abstract — a fluid, star-like form. But look closer, and a walking figure emerges.
Two of its extensions reach outward like arms mid-stride, as if embracing the world. One leg stretches forward, the other trails behind.
Though it is still, you can feel him moving. He animates in your head.
The top curve arches back, evoking a head tilted to the sky. There is no face, yet joy radiates. The sunlight caresses him.
He strides forward, open to whatever lies ahead — embracing it all.
He is monumental.
His feet are on the ground, his head in the clouds.
He is reflective — the urban landscape moves through him.
