Caterpillar

At the southeast corner of Lilly Science Hall is Brian Ferriby’s painted steel sculpture, Caterpillar. Ferriby, from Berklem, Michigan, uses copper and steel mined in the Upper Peninsula. He employs techniques elemental to the region, from those of the earliest black­smiths to the ironworkers who built fac­tories, skyscrapers, and bridges. “I believe my sculpture is a continuation of these innovations,” Ferriby says.
