INCUBATOR SCULPTURE BY SONIA YACO INSTALLED IN SOCIAL JUSTICE CENTER
MADISON WISCONSIN
The Social Justice Center is pleased to announce that a sculpture by Madison Wisconsin artist Sonia Yaco has been installed and is on permanent display. The sculpture, If a Platypus Had a Dream What Would It Mean: The Evolution of Social Change, is intended to publicize the Center's Incubator facility.
Ms. Yaco makes interactive and mechanical sculptures using metal, newspaper
headlines, ceramics, textiles, piano parts, plastic, electronics, water and
marbles.
As a computer scientist and political activist, Yaco has a fascination with
geometric, conceptual and societal interrelations. Her art is an attempt to
translate these patterns into sculpture. Sonia is a proud past member of Geeks
for Garvey and owns Anlex Computer Consulting LLC.
