Project Summary

Piece by Piece created a series of pillars that beautifully depict the flora and fauna native to the local area. The design features intricate drawings of insects, butterflies, and flowers, all conceptualized by local youth.

The collaboration with young artists not only highlights the beauty of local wildlife but also fosters community engagement, giving the youth a sense of pride and ownership in the artwork. The pillars serve as a lasting tribute to the richness of the area’s biodiversity while showcasing the creative talents of the next generation.
