This artwork, now removed, was originally a temporary piece, placed as part of a sculpture exhibition that was seen on the length of Mass Ave.  At the end of the exhibition, the artist continued to lend it to Dean Johnson Design, the business located immediately behind it.  Since then, Dean Johnson has been renamed Axiomport and moved away from the Mass Ave Cultural District.

The forms of Honor Guard aptly recall a soldier standing at attention.

The artist, Steve Wooldridge, was born in Sheridan, Indiana, where he continues to live. He attended the Dayton Art Institute, where he studied three-dimensional design and sculpture. He graduated from the Herron School of Art in 1963 with a degree in sculpture. Wooldridge is known for his site specific sculpture for indoors and outdoors as well as artisan furniture, and his extensive skill in blacksmithing.
