Concrete Tipi

This unique piece of art at the Valley Springs Welcome Center & Rest Area in South Dakota captivates visitors and passersby alike with its fusion of traditional and modern elements. At first glance, the sculpture appears to be a tipi skeleton, a nod to the indigenous history of the region. However, upon closer inspection, one realizes it is crafted from an unexpected material—concrete. The innovative use of this sturdy, modern material serves as a bridge between the past and the present, providing a thought-provoking juxtaposition that sparks the imagination. As travelers pause at this rest area along their journey, they are invited to reflect on the rich cultural heritage of the area and the resilience of the human spirit. https://Duncan.co/concrete-tipi
