ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Radiolaria #2 is a bronze sculpture by artist Cyrra C. Robinson. The title and form reference microscopic protozoa found in the ocean. Elaborate skeletons characterize these single-celled organisms. The artist notes, "Through line, repetition, and texture, these sculptures memorialize the efficacy of natural design, so evident in the creatures who exist, without cessation, under the forces of the ocean currents."

This artwork was acquired for the State Art Collection in partnership with The Evergreen State College.
