    Created in 2014, Don Lawler’s Crucible sculpture was installed on the west side of Martin Hall at the University of Indianapolis (UIndy) campus in 2016. Crafted from Indiana limestone, Crucible weighs over 7,000 pounds and stretches 5 feet in diameter. This massive sculpture stands as the latest addition to UIndy’s Fifth Third Bank Campus Sculpture Walk. Over a career of over 30 years, Don Lawler has created stone sculptures on a professional basis for public and private outdoor sites. Lawler creates contemporary sculptures that focus on the positive. Common themes include spiritual concerns, the goal of self actualization and the potential of daily self renewal. The monumental scale of Lawler’s stone sculptures further represent the artist’s affinity for building imaginative and creative encounters with art.

Sculptures vary greatly in size, style and subject, and most were chosen for inclusion through the Fifth Third Bank Campus Sculpture Walk Competition.

After graduating with a BFA from Arkansas State University in 1973, he attended the University of Illinois Graduate School in Sculpture (MFA’75).

    Prime Commonality - U of Indy
    Category: Digital Art; Electronic/Technology; Outdoor Sculpture
    The ancestral commonality between humans and chimpanzees is undeniable, with dramatic evidence exhibited in our chromosomal similarities. Prime Commonality is visually inspired by this high degree of correlation as shown in human and chimpanzee chromosomal banding patterns. The sculptures are internally lit and change colors to produce intense visual effects that take advantage of the physical interaction between colored light and translucent filters. The installation is sonically accompanied by a 14 channel surround sound art piece composed entirely of manipulated samples of both the human singing voice and chimpanzee vocalizations. Prime Commonality highlights both our similarities and differences with the shared natural world. Each of the 2 pillars is approximately 10”W x 10”D x 7’H and is styled to represent human and chimpanzee chromosomal banding using panels of wood and translucent acrylic. Light emanates from within each pillar from internal LEDs. Each pillar also contains a stereo set of audio speakers, player, and amplifier, for a total of 14 independent channels of sound from which a sound art piece plays, composed of digitally manipulated samples of both the human singing voice and chimpanzees. The chimpanzees were recorded at the John Ball Zoo in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Viewers are engulfed in a stunning visual and aural experience as they are awash in vibrant, evolving color and sound from all directions.

    Verge
    Category: Outdoor Sculpture
    Verge is a nonrepresentational sculpture that, according to the artist, speaks about relationships and dependence.  The central wood piece represents how far someone can push you before you break, while the metal pieces represent how much you can lean on someone before you can no longer stand on your own.  The artist has said that most of her artwork comes from a negative place, and creating the work helps her work through her emotions. Kylie Little was born in Goshen, IN and graduated from University of Indianapolis with a bachelor’s degree in Studio Art and Pre-Art Therapy, with a concentration in Sculpture. As of 2019 she is a MFA candidate at Georgia State University.  Little is known for creating work on large scales using natural materials.
