92 County Walk- De Kalb County

This sculpture depicts a streamlined, bronze hood ornament gliding nobly over a bed of freshly plowed farmland in the background.  This piece salutes Auburn’s automobile industry as well as farming.  The brown and tan colors used create a harmonious combination for the arrangement of objects. 

Designers Jeff Laramore and David Jemerson Young of 2nd Globe, an Indianapolis–based artistic company designed all 92 and the county sculptures featured on the outside of the Indiana State Museum. Their designs narrate the counties’ famous natives, historically significant events, or their fabricated and installed by various Indiana sculptors, carvers, class workers, metal workers, and other artisans.
