It also becomes a symbol of the American mosaic itself -- aside from the Indians, there are no purely native Americans. We are a nation of many pieces, and we have, in large part at least, fit together nicely. And that is exactly what this symbol on symbol expresses. In digi-art, remember to always to choose a technique, in this case the mosaic tile filter, that reinforces your idea. And that is exactly what you have done here, Mo.

This works due to the static quality of this great statue, it seems to go together with its rigidity and the fact that it's made up of lots of parts welded together.
