The artist says:
“I see these as a balancing of opposites, a kind of turning of the cosmic sphere, night and day, sun and moon, dark and light; false binaries that suggest one can be had without the other, but they reaffirm each other, and coexist in balance (with effort).’’
The Star on the Sidewalk, in front of Worcester City Hall, indicates the spot of what is said to be the first reading in New England of the Declaration of Independence, in 1776.
