Community
KC Adams, 2013
Iron rods, paperclay, paint, glitter
Public Art commissioned by the United Way of Winnipeg
Community was inspired by the organic matrix of a light-conducting,
deep-sea sponge. This resilient life-form contains a menagerie of
organisms that depend on the sponge for light and habitat. Shaped by
the relationship with its inhabitants, each organism develops in
symbiosis, creating a micro-environment where the whole is greater than
the sum of its parts. As a metaphor for United Way, the elegant lines
of the artwork reference the interconnections between people and
resources within the community, each supporting one another, as the
form reaches out and up towards the light.
