Explore Outdoors: Sac State sculpture illuminates the eyes and mind<\/p>\n

\"Mike<\/a><\/p>\n

I love getting out on new hiking trails or waterways to explore and discover the outdoors.<\/p>\n

But, there’s also an equally visual way to experience the symbolism of nature: through art.<\/p>\n

Which brings us to the Welcome Center on the campus of Sacramento State.<\/p>\n

A few steps outside the center is a eye-catching, free-flowing and colorfully transformative sculpture titled, “Tributary.”<\/p>\n

The name is meant to invoke thoughts of the Sacramento watershed and area rivers.<\/p>\n

But the meanings go much deeper.<\/p>\n

And like water flowing down a river, student artists had to deal with challenges along the way to making this sculpture a reality.<\/p>\n

To learn more about the deeper meaning and to see what makes this daylight sculpture transformative at sunset, watch the story above.<\/p>\n
