The “All-In” sculpture was dedicated on October 3, 2019. The sculpture commemorate the 40th anniversary of the independence of Saint Lucia. The 40' long bronze sculpture is 12.5' tall and 19' wide. It was created by Saint Lucian sculptor Jallim Eudovic.
All-In has four seated figures in a line. They each hold a set of large oars are in the act of rowing. There is no boat so the figures are in full view. The blades of the oars support the sculpture. The sculpture represents Saint Lucia’s ethnic composition: The Amerindians, Europeans, Africans and East Indians all of whom arrived by boat.
According to Jallim Eudovic: “Time has unified us all. We are no longer slaves or colonizers or indentured laborers, we are one nation and one people. We now sail back into the world in collective stride, the cargo – our culture, heritage and the mighty people who now work from the helm.”
