• This piece of artwork does not particularly speak to us, but it did stand out because it was striking. It wasn’t exactly beautiful but it was almost so unappealing that it stood out to us. It was withered and at one point it could have represented more, but now it is nothing more than a statue that has no clear meaning.
• If this piece of art is viewed as an anchor, it can be said to keep people grounded and avoid over-confidence.  It can also be viewed as a bird, which shows how someone can soar.  No matter how it is viewed, this piece still shows how people can excel here on campus.
• We believe that when it was first made, it could have been a beautiful bird or anchor, reminding us of how high we can go with a college education or how we have to stay grounded, but without any information on the sculptor or any history of the past of the sculpture, it is up to the viewer to decide.
