Touchstones: Sculpture Participating with Place

"We are touched by what we touch. We are shaped by what we shape. We are enhanced by what we enhance."
The Great Work -- Thomas Berry

Sculpture invites us to more fully engage with our environment. It helps focus our attention on nature's materials and forms. Sculpture has presence and enlivens a setting. As we interact with sculpture, our senses are heightened and we become more acutely aware of the intricate beauty of our places. -- JL
