Two pieces of public art are newly on display in Greenville: Yuri Tsuzuki’s “Transformation” and Charles Pate Jr.’s “Fear Not,” both of which tie into the Cancer Survivors Park Alliance’s philosophy of strength + hope, taking art beyond museums to add inspiration to the everyday.
“Transformation,” a steel sculpture wall of butterflies outside Brooks Brothers downtown, is part of Tsuzuki’s Butterfly Project series, which brings steel butterflies to public spots like light posts + parking garages. “Fear Not,” in the Cancer Survivor’s park, shows a child finding comfort + courage from a lion. Both convey the mission of empowerment that the Cancer Survivors Park Alliance represents.
At the same time, the Arts in Public Places Commission has endorsed COMP – the Greenville Housing Authority’s Communities of Opportunity Mural Program. That means even more public art: expect lots of amazing murals in Greenville’s future. 🎨
