Cultural Pedestrians is a series of freestanding concrete and steel pieces that visually represent different cultures of past and present people from our society and others. The walking symbolically referenced by pedestrians is a measured movement with very direct connection to the world. The pieces are human-sized, and just like us, the whole is made up of parts. Each of us is a multifaceted compilation of smaller fragments of our thoughts, experiences and aspirations. The parts are not uniform but instead diverse, not derived from a single time nor a single place. Cultural Pedestrians Sue Quinlan, 2014
