Statue Design // SYMBIOSIS

Overview 🔎

The Wetlands acts as a site of preservation, education, and

community involvement for Clark County. A place where

people can immerse themselves in nature, and become a part

of its conservation.

This statue aims to show the healthy and mutually beneficial

relationship that we can have with the world around us. The

symbiosis between mankind and the elements of nature.
