..."In preparation for “Pillars of the Valley,” Davis received a personal history lesson from Gibson and other former residents of Mill Creek Valley. “I wanted to make something that resonated with [them]. The whole time I was thinking about their specific history.”
Referencing the art installation — which is comprised of eight 15-foot-tall black, granite, hourglass-shaped statues — Gibson was all smiles. “I’m so excited for Damon because this is a beautiful art installation,” she said. “It so represents the community that I grew up in and love. I’m excited. I’m happy. I’m proud.”
A public celebration of “Pillars of the Valley” will be held from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday at CityPark on the corner of Market and 22nd Street."
