Waiting
[Subheading]
Tuesday, February 24, 2009

Greenwood Communities and Resorts recently purchased “They Are Waiting,” a sculpture created by Nigerian artist Nnamdi Okonkwo, to be placed at the outdoor amphitheatre of The Ponds, a master-planned community in Summerville. The piece features three women in various stages of waiting, subtly depicting variations in depth and intensity.  “People can relate to and identify with this sculpture, because the women reflect basic human emotions that are ever-present in our lives,” said Okonkwo, who is an active participant in Summerville’s annual “Sculpture in the South” event and currently resides in Fayetteville, Georgia. Greenwood believes the quality of life in a community is enriched by public domain art, and supports this philosophy through gifts of art in its communities.
