The contractors hired to move the 25,000 pound piece did a great job. I watched and kept my mouth shut. They knew what they were doing, and they knew I was watching with a camera. The original block weighed almost 45,000 pounds.

The Symposium was held in public, with artists from eight countries participating. We all carved all day together, ate together, drank together, and had a great time getting to know each other and performing for the public. Great experience.

All publicly owned work is an honor for the artist. I am grateful for all the opportunities to create publicly owned Art I have had. Art is a gift to the future, and I hope my input helps contribute toward peace and empathy.
