About the Artwork

Artist Kathy Hubbard's abstracted human figure is made from cast bronze. The surface is heavily textured and the figure is composed to highlight strength. She notes, "My work pushes the material to its limits, maintaining structural soundness while stressing mobility. These physical balances symbolize a tension between freedom and security expressed in the work."

This artwork was acquired for the State Art Collection in partnership with Tacoma Public Schools.
