Connect v. - Jacksonville, FL - Abstract Public Sculptures on Waymarking.com

This is one of two large-scale public outdoor artworks outside the Thomas G. Carpenter Library on the University of North Florida campus created by artist Mary Ratcliff.

The following information is from the campus newspaper, Spinnaker (visit link) :

'Mary Ratcliff... put together two complementing sculptures that were installed on the outside of the second floor of the library.

“Connection N” and “Connect V” sit on each side of the reading alcove on the second floor. The larger piece, “Connection N” is approximately 18 feet and fills the empty space in the area.

“Since they are for the library, they are inspired by the brain and linking pieces of knowledge together,” Ratcliff said.

“Connection N” is about the state of being connected, while “Connect V” has receptor ends. Ratcliff explained that the pieces are a metaphor of making connections in college with colleagues and professors.'
