BEQUEST
Artist: Brian Chessmar

Bequest represent dancing figures on cubes with their arms invitingly extended towards various directions of the City. Each sculpture will vary in size and orientation (15, 12 and 9 feet tall respectively). Conceptually, the balance between the figures and cubes encompasses the intricate poise between commerce, agriculture, tourism and education within the City. The sculpture trio will be fabricated out of 316L stainless steel which will require little maintenance and is suitable for San Luis Obispo’s climate (rust and corrosion resistant in coastal environments). The sculptures will be mounting as such that they appear to be balancing on the corners of the cubes.
