All human accomplishments throughout the centuries began with a single thought.

Power of Thought was inspired by the drive that has led men and women through the ages to expand the human experience. The sculpture is an acknowledgment and a celebration of this extraordinary experience and the related achievements.

Through twenty-five detailed features, the sculpture tells some of the stories of this human journey. A wheel turns into a steam engine, which becomes the bullet train hurdling up a track that is being pulled by the athletic figure, and is transformed into the unraveling of a DNA sequence. The figure’s left arm is lifted up releasing the Wright flier, followed by the most beautiful aircraft ever built, the Super Sonic Transport with its sleek body and its elegantly swept wings.

Below the figure are representations of architectural, engineering, scientific and artistic achievements that include: Jordan’s Petra, The Roman Coliseum, Sydney’s Opera House, The Hoover Dam, The Pyramids, Shakespeare, Swan Lake, Beethoven’s 5th, Taj Mahal, Toronto’s CN Tower, The Great Wall of China, Michelangelo’s Creation scene, The Gutenberg press, an oil derrick, Rodin’s The Thinker, a 1964 Zenith transistor radio, Edison’s first light bulb, and Neil Armstrong’s Footprint on the surface of the moon.
