Description
While carrying my old Minolta X700 around for the last year with some Kodak Tri-X 400 loaded.
I snapped some images of the outdoor sculpture called "Tapestry" by Beth Nybeck.
Created in 2016 the artwork is composed of five aluminum pod inspired forms and is installed in an area 35'x20' x11' at the Justice Annex Center in Olathe, KS.
The sculptural elements are growing within a natural sea oat field in front of the facility.
Each pod has statements cut out of the metal surface, allowing light and air to pass through each sculpture. The words are taking from interviews the artist conducted with people who utilize the Center. The piece is inspired by storytelling and meant to convey hope to the audience.
Anyway this is a composite of two of those images relaying the little stories that are cut into the metal.
