Moorman’s photographs showcase all 51 statues, illustrating how this community-driven project has transformed the town into a vibrant gallery of public art, reflecting its unique cultural identity and artistic spirit.

Journey through the architectural splendor of America’s state capitols with Moorman’s series, including Arkansas State Capitol, California State Capitol Sacramento, Colorado State Capitol Denver, Utah State Capitol Salt Lake City, and Washington State Capitol Olympia.
