Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "A C-54 cargo plane flies through the sky, releasing parachutes of chocolate bars down into the arms of waiting children. The plane itself is not the normal color it should be, instead it is shades of orange and red. Warmer, and bolder colors convey happiness and optimism, both of which were brought by the candy drops."
