Lobby Art Proposal
The Viv St. Petersburg Florida
“Ripples of Connection” Artist, Zachary Oxman (c) 2024
“Ripples of Connection” is a suspended sculpture designed to flow through the lobby like waves spreading across a tranquil pond. Inspired by the expansive nature of ripples on water, the artwork conveys a sense of connection and movement. Soft lighting highlights its graceful contours. The sculpture’s concentric "rings" appear to hover in motion, evoking the Gulf’s coastal waters and the serene beauty of St. Petersburg.
The piece serves as a metaphor for community, illustrating how a single action, like a drop in water, can create waves that unite and resonate. “Ripples of Connection” symbolizes the harmony and energy that emerge from shared lives coming together.
Interacting dynamically, the sculpture reflects the soft, ever-changing hues of Florida’s skies. This interplay grounds it in its coastal setting. Positioned as both an artistic focal point and an invitation for reflection, the sculpture encourages viewers to pause, look upward, and consider the connections that shape their lives.
More than a decorative installation, “Ripples of Connection” celebrates unity, fluidity, and the interwoven relationships that foster thriving communities. It offers an inspiring reminder of the ripples each individual creates in their own life and in the lives of others.
