WTC Memorial Site Proposal(Warm Steel)

ABS resin shaped by NC machine
4 x 4 x 4in
I call this piece “Reclamation”. The iron is solid and will be casted from ruins of the World Trade Center. When people touch the object it will gently warm to human skin temperature, thus representing a paradox. The angle is planned to be comfortable for all of mankind when leaned upon. It gradually changes from a square at the bottom to a circle at the top, signifying peace.
