Materials: Leaps & Bounds The arches represent the running and leaping feet active within the Field house. The juxtaposition of 3 different arcs speaks in the simplest way of the diverse strengths training and competing inside. One leaps higher, one runs farther, another is good at both. The 3 compete with each other, each bringing something else to the table. While this idea started with leaping feet, the result also suggests the arc of a soaring ball or other object, speaking to the adjacent ball field and other track and field sports - pole-vault, javelin. Stepping away from athletics, these overlapping arches make an abstract nod to the overlapping mountains forming the horizon around La Grande.
