Pinecone 2

Pinecone 2 is a public sculpture in Boca Raton that takes natural form as its artistic subject, transforming a simple botanical structure into an enlarged, contemplative work that asks you to look more closely at shapes you might otherwise overlook. The pinecone's geometric precision — its spiraling scales following mathematical patterns found throughout nature — makes it a rich subject for sculptural exploration. Placed in a public setting in South Florida, Pinecone 2 creates an interesting counterpoint: a cool-climate botanical form rendered in the subtropical sunshine. It's part of Boca Raton's broader commitment to making its public spaces feel considered and alive, offering passersby a quiet moment of natural wonder in an urban context.
