New Sculpture Installed in Hancock

Written by  Jacqueline Weaver Friday, December 16, 2011 at 4:06 pm
One of the works created during the 2011 Schoodic International Sculpture Symposium is now on permanent display in Hancock in an open area alongside the town office. The permanent installation, “Sublime Portal: Whispering Stones,” was sculpted by Jon Barlow Hudson of Ohio. The piece contains three different types of granite. Barlow said one of the references he was making in the sculpture is to the location’s history, which once was the site of a train station, “a place of arriving and departing, as through a portal.” Placing the sculpture over several days last week were Jesse Salisbury (right), art director of the symposium, and Kazumi Hashino, a sculptor in the symposium and Salisbury’s wife.
