“What a Wonderful World,”
by Leonard Ursachi of New York
City, depicts Earth in the shape of
an egg, which he said represents
the importance of home and how
fragile a home can be. The small
opening is meant to resemble that
of a bunker or refuge, and the
mirror inside is meant to inspire
self-reflection. The piece is made
of branches, stainless steel and
pigmented cement. It is located in
front of the Riverwalk.
