Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
Filmmaker Arthur Crenshaw profiles self-taught, Birmingham, Alabama sculptor Lonnie Holley, and his efforts in creating an installation for the Birmingham Museum of Art's sculpture garden. As Holley sets out to find materials for his installation, he opens up about his struggles with racism, and the role sculpture has played in allowing him to express his creative vision.
