As part of The Big Read and inspired by Andrew Krivak’s The Bear, Eastern Connecticut State University students and alumni were recently challenged to create pieces of art made of natural materials that blend with the environmental surroundings. Their exhibits can be viewed along the trails at Trail Wood. Come see the natural materials that inspired creations with intriguing titles such as “Stalking Spring”, “Mors Venit”, “The Last One’s Return”, “The First Sighting”, “Lens for Introspection”, “Quiet Unraveling”, “Spiral Sentinels”, “Feet of Innocence”, “Forever in the Stars”, “The Hollowing”, and “A Gift”.
