'Cancer... There's Hope' by Mexican sculptor Victor Salmones features eight life-size bronze figures--the back five are cancer patients and their supporters preparing to enter treatment, represented by the maze and the front three figures are cancer survivors.
The marker reads as follows: "This sculpture, 'Cancer... There's Hope', is the last work of the world renowed sculptor, Victor Salmones. He claims it to be his finest, the labor of love. The back five figures are cancer patients and their supporters preparing to enter treatment, represented by the maze. Notice the fear, determination and hope displayed on their faces in contrast to the joy on the faces of the front three, signifying successful treatment.
