Soul Awakening First Prize and Artists’ Choice |
|
| Soul Awakening, carved by Denis, John and Pat for the Japan Cup Snow Sculpture Contest, is 9 feet (2.7 m) tall. This piece represents man waking up, hopefully more aware of him/her-self in these new and threatening times. The figure was supposed to be androgynous, but looks a bit more feminine in the image. |
| The physical
act of having to look into the sculpture is a metaphor for us having to
look into ourselves.
The sphere, of course, also represents the Earth. The lines on the sphere, which intersect the point where the viewer looks into the piece, symbolize the aperture of a camera. The seven lines represent the seven chakras of the human body. |
