why you should see the hero

Why you should see The Hero sculpture

The Hero sculpture is captivating because it represents the importance of mind over body in our hero’s. The head or top of the sculpture is solid representing its value and importance opposed to the body which is just an empty rectangular frame. Since the body has no arms or legs this represents the importance of contributing through thoughts and Ideas more than physical actions done with the body. This means that doesn’t matter how strong of a body someone, if that person has a mind like a hero then they are a hero. The sculpture is a rusty color and is placed over an hour glass structure which reminds me of how my hero’s are getting older and that even though there is nothing left of their bodies their memories still provide me with strength... Since the sculpture is made of steal it represents strength and permanence which is true of many hero’s in that they live in our hearts and minds long after they have gone physically. So, if a society or a person has a mind like a hero, it would last a long time and would be a standard of their lives.. So you should visit this sculpture to see the significance it could have to you since hero’s are important to everyone because we all want to be like our hero’s. The hero’s we wish to emulate represent the actions we will make as individuals and as societies.
