Overview

Standing tall at 12 feet, our latest installation, “Flock,” adds a splash of whimsy to the vibrant sculpture landscape of the Washington DC Metro area. This eye-catching ensemble features a flock of powder-coated blue ducks, each one contributing to the unique charm of the piece.

Nestled among the city’s iconic landmarks, “Flock” invites viewers to pause and ponder as they encounter this playful interpretation of avian grace. Whether admired from a distance or explored up close, the sculpture promises to captivate with its larger-than-life presence and intricate details.

As a testament to the diversity of artistic expression in the nation’s capital, “Flock” joins a wide range of sculptures that celebrate creativity and inspire imagination. Its bold colors and dynamic composition serve as a reminder of the power of art to evoke joy and spark conversation in our urban environment.

Experience the enchantment of “Flock” as it takes flight amidst the bustling streets of Washington DC, offering a delightful escape into a world where imagination knows no bounds.

Goals


Acrylicize reached out to commission a piece of art for their client, intended for a commercial building space accessible to the public. Crafted from 3/4" thick steel and coated in vibrant primary blue, the sculpture is envisioned as a non-political and whimsical addition to the surrounding business area.
