Mother and Child

Kenneth Speiser
1990

This sculpture, titled “Mother & Child,” represents two themes related to the I-195 Redevelopment District. The Mother figure is there to nurture and guide her Child, looking to the future of this creative mile, while the colorful elements reference the iconography of the construction trade and the work being done in developing new Providence.

Like a sentry, Mother is keeping watch over this redevelopment project, feeling right at home in the familiar colors of construction. Child is standing by her side, looking into the future.
