12/365 "Not a Totem"

This is a Sculpture called "Le droit a la difference". It was made to demonstrate the concept of difference by not being just one of the forms it suggests: Column, Totem, Beacon, Tree.  By combining several materials, it underlines the interdependency of all minorities.  Together, differences form an equilibrium as fundamental as an ecosystem.  Arm in Arm, they create a dynamic that can move a mounitan and unleash the vital forces necessary to evolve from the stone age to the age of enlightenment.  So thats what the plaque beside it says anyhow...lol

But seriously, I understand what it signifies and I find it to be a very interesting piece of artwork. It always catches my attention when I am down by the lake.
