The Meaning of Statues

Do all of our Confederate statues insult our modern sensibilities?

If we will be known by our statues, what do our statues say?



A statue made out of a fallen tree tells the story of our humanity:  all we love will ultimately be lost.





Can a statue made of marble bring us comfort?



Does a statue made of recycled scraps tell us something about our ultimate destiny?





Can a statue call us to something bigger than ourselves?




We continue to make our tributes.
