A sculptural vessel inspired by Green Bay’s layered identity, this ship-like form draws from a child’s folded paper boat—honoring the region’s deep roots in paper and packaging while evoking early moments of learning and imagination. Its emerald-toned palette reflects the French description of the water, while the corrugated metal surfaces echo the strength and texture of Green Bay's packing industry. Positioned near the Fox River, the form is a nod to the area’s boating culture, and a pair of swings spanning bow to stern creates an area for play, connection, and shared experience—inviting community cohesion through movement and encounter. The paper-Boat Swing celebrates the spirit of Green Bay’s attributes while engaging the public and community members.
