Still Life
Still Life by Steven Gillman consists of an embedded curved granite ring, six inches wide with openings at the N,W,E,S compass points. Spanning nearly 108 inches, the piece appears to both merge with and emerge from the landscape. Two granite slabs appear at the center of the circle inviting viewers into the circle. Carefully positioned on the lawn in front of Modoc Hall, the piece evokes ancient ruins or in Gillman’s words a “circle of life.”
