Nature’s Abundance is a piece inspired by the Providence Environmental Justice Plan. It depicts two types of animal cohabitants that we can encounter in urban parks: the squirrel, which happily goes about its task of securing acorns in preparation for the upcoming season, and the falcon. The latter seems to ponder a longer timeline in this piece, perhaps one spanning the creation of the stars and the construction of the City of Providence.
“I hope to add more beauty to the world,” the artist states, pointing us towards capturing a moment and holding on to it for a while.
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.
