The statue captures the 35th President of the United States, John F. Kennedy. A young president who inspired the nation. The words “Ask not what your country can do for you, Ask what you can do for your country”, inscribed on the sculpture, continue to inspire Americans to serve their fellow men and women.

My image captures the former president from both the front and the back in the colors of red and blue. This is because in a nation split by partisan lines, the former president stands as a reminder that we should put country before party. The red side signifies the desire to act, while the blue side represents the search for understanding the people. This sculpture, along with its vibrant colors, reinterpreted through the two colors, helps remind us that unity means working together even when we are different, and that is how we achieve actual change.
