Rich Dilworth
Here in Richmond,Virginia, we have been at the forefront of social change for hundreds of years-both for good and bad. My sculpture has always been more closely associated with nature; but during this past summer's protests for social equality, I felt inspired to create a series dedicated to the movement. Ripping down the Jim Crow monuments, and reclaiming the green spaces they occupied to honor those lost to police brutality was amazing- and should be memorialized forever in art. Even though I'm an over 55 year old white guy, I was forever inspired by this generation of change-oriented young folks!
