Nostalgia's Refuge: A Bench of Stuffed Memories

​

A collaboration by Rob McClain and Sarah Stojevich

​

Refurbished cast iron bench, twine, stuffed characters, yarn, steel rod, and a disco ball

​

This sculpture aims to capture the essence of nostalgia and innocence, transporting the viewer back to a time of carefree joy, simplicity, and wonder. The stuffed characters evoke a longing for the past and a desire to preserve the innocence that often fades with time.
