Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: The amazing public artwork (Our Silences) situated on the north end of Harry Bridges Plaza, on San Francisco’s Embarcadero in front of the Ferry Building.
The mysterious, monumental bronze sculptures, created by noted Mexican artist José Rivelino Moreno Valle, convey the importance of freedom of speech. The mouths of the huge anthropomorphic figures are each blocked by a metal plate. The piece was created to generate a reflection on the importance of freedom of speech and self-censorship; it strives to facilitate an intimate yet open dialogue, with respect to one of the fundamental human rights, as well as establishing a symbolic exchange with the places where it has been set up. This set of sculptures is travelling around the work and was just setup when I arrived. |
