Arc of Peace by Lorri Acott

Arc of Peace presents a bronze form that curves and extends through space with deliberate grace. The sculpture's arcing trajectory suggests movement while remaining stationary—a paradox central to its visual strategy. The material's warm patina emphasizes the work's volumetric presence, while its polished and weathered surfaces create variable reflections across its surface. The title's invocation of peace operates in tension with the formal assertiveness of the piece: rather than depicting quietude, the work enacts it through the controlled geometry of its arc. The bronze's weight and permanence anchor what might otherwise read as pure gesture, establishing a physical counterpoint to the ethereal implications of its name.
