Perspective

A trip to Frederik Meijer Sculpture Garden includes seeing this awe-inspiring sculpture by Alexander Liberman. It’s titled “Aria.”

You can walk around and under it.
You can gaze up through the middle of it.
You can get close to it, your face inches from the metal.
You can see it soar from a distance.

With each shift in perspective, it changes.

It shares details.
It grows richer.
It surprises.

What part of your life could you practice seeing as a sculpture?

Take a walk around it.
Zoom in and zoom out.
See it against the crisp winter sky.
See it as art.

Perspective-taking makes room for insight.
