collective impact

(A Hamilton, Ohio Sculpture)

My client, Community First Solutions in Hamilton, Ohio, and I worked closely together to design this stainless steel, abstract sculpture to represent the organization's positive role in providing health & education services for the citizens of Butler County.

The forms suggest cooperative efforts for uplifting results; growth & celebration; strength & unity.  The "head" in the center suggests human heads, a dove, an owl, a flame, an expanding psyche, and all the symbolism associated with those subjects.   After designing the sculpture I worked with fabricators, John Cline of Casting Arts & Technology and Paul Lashua to make it real.
