This is a piece that I created out of marble 5 years ago. I really think that it is a fitting tribute to the all the lives that were lost in the towers.
The marble is slender and tall, just like the towers. I carved the faces and made them smooth, but I made the faces "sleep like" leaving out great details of the faces. The back round I left rough and that gives the piece a feeling of destruction, like the destruction of the towers, but the faces emerge from the destruction giving the viewer a sense of memory of those lost on that terrible day.
It actually took me some time to realize that I made a memorial for those lost on 911.
