Modern sculptures like the Bean in Chicago and the Wall Street Bull in New York are celebrated for a variety of reasons, and the positive economic impact these kinds of pieces have created is undeniable. It’s the same kind of effect the Ohio Infinity sculpture is designed to produce for the space or area in Ohio where it’s built.
A model of the Ohio Infinity culture monument is pictured here along with a comparison of a similar model and the eventual piece, highlighting how these models will translate into reality. All of the decisions around the symbols, words and images that will appear throughout the piece will be determined based on community feedback and support. This selection process will enable the surrounding community to relate to the piece and ensure it has a positive impact in the present and extend far into the future.
