The artist, Chris Carnbuci, created 40-inch sculptures during the summer of 2020.
Terrence was moved by the statues and also grateful for being allowed to have a say in the project.
We stand by the power of public art.

The beauty is that we didnt know how people would embrace them as their own interpretation.
Seeing people create what it means for them has been the most rewarding thing to us as producers.
