My sculpture is something that I put a lot of hard work and love into. My grandpa passed away in 2018 due to heart malfunctions and we were always super close. The hand represents the “I love you” symbol in sign language, it is something that my grandpa always used when he would see any of my family. It is something that now means a lot to my family and I. The ripples represent the water at his favorite place he would go to growing up. Mackinac island is now a very special place to my family. When we get the chance, once covid is over, we are all going to take a trip there to spread his ashes. I think the 2 meanings together create a very beautiful and peaceful piece of art.
