Congratulations Ben on these major accomplishments! We are so grateful he lends his talents to produce our Sculpture Walk program. Well done 👏

🗿 Sculptor Spotlight 🗿

Introducing the incredible artists behind our newest Sculpture Walk exhibit! We’re thrilled to kick things off with Spencer Budd and the inspiring vision behind his piece. Read below and stay tuned to discover more talented sculptors bringing art to life in our community!

“To me this sculpture represents how life works. A change in any decision along the way effects the path and final outcome. Each decision we make creates a trajectory. As we string our decisions together, like each plate of my sculpture, we are making a life, a form, a work of art.”

“Here is a general statement on our my spiral series. -
If I were not human, not imperfect in ex*****on, my spiral sculptures would be nautili, perfect strands of DNA, our solar system traversing space. But I make mistakes, change directions at my own whim. My ability to conceive, construct and assemble deviates from mathematical precision. And yet, these perceived “imperfections” create their own pleasing form, and the process results in a unique and personal outcome.”
