This was the People's Choice Award winner from Sculpture Walk in 2017. The sculpture will be temporarily placed at Van Eps Park for a one year time period. The park is being refurbished and should be ready by July 2018 for sculpture placement. The work consists of a single, life-like figure of a Native American man standing upon two rocks with a weathered piece of wood between the rocks. His dress includes beaded leather shoes, leather pants with fringe at the seams, and a beaded tunic with a cape or wrap draped around his shoulders. At his head, his hair is swept back with three feathers protruding.
