Why Joy? “Cave says he has been thinking about the term ‘augment,’ this notion to ‘enhance or making things better,\u201d and thinking about ‘things that we need to feed our souls.'”<\/p>\n

Describing the plan to bring his sculpture from the BCA to Upham’s Corner, Cave says ‘One community moving to the other one in a sort of reconciliation manner. \u2026 I\u2019m thinking of it as, it\u2019s almost bridging this gap between two communities that have sort of never interfaced with each other.’ ” – Greg Cook, Wonderland<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
