This week’s featured image comes from sculptor Dale Lamphere of South Dakota. He wants to put this 45-foot-tall sculpture of a Native American woman on the bluffs overlooking the Missouri River in Chamberlain, South Dakota.
In December, the project got a $1 million donation from Norm and Eunabel McKie, helping the artist take a major step toward realizing his vision.
