Drawn Together features two raised hands in the process of joining together in solidarity. Also, the sculptural pose evokes students raising their hands in class asking a question or volunteering to be involved in an activity. The artwork is inspired by the subjects most important to TIAA - sustainability, climate change, racial inequity, and community involvement, and poetically interconnecting them to create a singular, iconic sculptural expression. Capturing the formal beauty of the striations of color presented in a set of colored pencils, the sculpture suggests that the hands were carved from a large group of unsharpened colored pencils vertically fused together. The selected colors are based on earth tones found in the landscape-inspired building interior and colored pencil sets that feature multiracial skin tones. The interweaving of colors celebrates the connection between culture, society, and the natural world.
