The Lady Has Been Moved

 


I took this photo in September of 2015 and it's been sitting in the archives ever since.  The sculpture was located outside an entrance to Banner University Medical Center in central Phoenix.  There wasn't a sign or other information about the sculpture so I never posted it.













Recently, I saw the same sculpture had been moved to a new location outside the entrance to the Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center only this time it does have a descriptive sign.  

The sculpture is titled "Woman" and the description reads "Image of woman as strength, energy and Mother Earth, her hair mixing with the moon and stars and sun and clouds overhead." The artist is Carole Harrison and it was a gift to the hospital from Debra Withers.

Glad to see that Carole Harrison was able to make a big improvement to the lady' Much better looking than the original.

The world needs more public art.

A very unusual work.

I'm glad they installed an informational sign. It's always helpful to know the title of an artwork, the name of the artist and maybe something about its inspiration.

What a wonderful sculpture.

I'm glad it showed up again, along with a descriptive sign, so people can enjoy it.
