Team Name: The Windy City Snowmen
Sculpture Title: The Hand of Time
Artist Statement: Standing before an ancient megalithic site, one is filled with the presence of the creators of those magnificent and timeless wonders. They traverse time to share communion with you. The Egyptian god Thoth (seen here as the baboons) said that a person becomes immortal when they can remember their past lives. When we perceive our own timelessness it illuminates the proverb “Good people plant trees the shade of which they will never sit under”.
