Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "The center of my piece is a bridge in Amsterdam, which is a popular symbol of the region. Carla skated in the canals as a girl and made memories there. The water underneath flows and inspires hope, and the currents are as strong as the bravery it took to stand up against the Nazis and hide family members in farmhouses."
