Created in collaboration with colleague Jane Powers, this work was created in response to an open call for proposals for an installation in the courtyard. The intention of the collaborating artists was to create a place for gathering, contemplation and discovery. A 50’ diameter black earth circle centered on the lawn was created to interrupt the path that bisects the lawn in order to re-center attention on this courtyard area as a whole. Squares of sod on the black earth provide stepping-stones to the pond the artists created at the center. Petri dishes and grease pencils were provided for students and teachers to write messages to float on the pond. An art class from the college worked with the artists to install the finished work.
