| Our Journey |
One of Orlando's most ingenious pieces of street art is on the side of a parking garage outside the Amway Center.
Starting on the ground, eight life-sized cast aluminum figures scale cascading ladders up the side of the garage, culminating in a triumphant figure holding a globe at the top.
The piece is called "Our Journey," and it was commissioned from artist Bill Starke by the City of Orlando.
At night, lights switch on and off to animate the progress of the figures up the ladders. It is quite beautiful.
It's certainly much more inspirational than the half-million dollar "Tower of Light" statue that locals affectionately refer to as "The Giant Glass Asparagus."
Leica X1. 24.0 mm. 1/60. f/2.8. ISO 1600. LR 2.
Great shot! Cool piece of Orlando to share.
