About This Piece

This sculpture is made of Colorado rose red granite and can be used as a “reconciliation bench” where two children sit to talk through disagreements. The bench has the shape of a love seat with two opposite facing seats immediately next to each other, so the children see each other up close. The seats are connected in the middle with a notched armrest to indicate an opening in feelings, understanding and logic. The natural material supports the idea that reconciliation is a natural process if people talk to each other. The stone is about 50 inches long, 26 inches wide and 18 inches high–very low because it is intended specifically for very young children. Seats are ground smooth with areas of polish. The majority of the sides are split-face stone to show its natural character.
