This piece is placed in the center of downtown Hagerstown Cultural Trail. Flowing through the center of the city, it mimics the undulating surface and path of any of the many creeks and sources for the Potomac river in the region. The seats allow for respite, relaxation and reflection. We are interested in the river as a flowing form, a representation of progress and a feature that is both moving and permanent. There is a similarity between the pleasant beauty, calming sound and feeling of water running by, and the indifferent power and potential force when fully unleashed which is both inspiring and terrifying.
