Growing Through

Growing Through is inspired by the Providence Climate Justice Plan’s vision for a low-carbon future, one where your race or zip code no longer determines your health or economic outcomes. It takes visual inspiration from the architectural structures of The Manchester Street Power Station, interpreted to host natural and native flowers in a future state of green energy.

“These florals show the possibility of what can emerge when action is taken to help better care for the world that provides so much for us.”

With this work, we connect local artists and the 195 District Park with the Providence Climate Justice Plan, centering The Avenue Concept’s vision to provide clear avenues for artists to create joy, dialogue, and inclusion in public art.
