Description

Bridge is a series of 20 large glacial boulders selected and assembled into a sculptural installation. The stones are fitted together and secured with stainless steel pins and epoxy. The average diameter of each boulder is two feet. The artist intended for the fitting and pinning of the boulders to "represent the idea of connection."[3]
