Wilmington, NC

Ayokunle Odeleye

The 1898 Memorial Park is intended to “bring remembrance, healing and hope”  to Wilmington, North Carolina, more than 100 years after the race riots that overthrew the biracial city government and devastated the previously prosperous black community.  Ayokunle Odeleye designed 11 figures in the shape of African paddles, each 16 feet tall to symbolize, educate, and inspire.  Palmer Engineering Company designed the structures with bronze skins over stainless steel skeletons with an eye toward ease of construction, durability, and low maintenance and to resist Wilmington’s hurricane design winds.

Commissioned as part of Fulton County's 1% for the arts program, this installation splashes color across the walls of The Center for Health and Rehabilitation in patterns that vary with the hour and the season. Colored glass, stainless steel and the artist's vision yield a brilliant and ever changing rainbow.

The MLK silhouette is an instantly recognizable tribute to one of America's greatest citizens. This giant sculpture on Freedom Parkway was cut and formed from a single sheet of Cor-Ten steel 1 1/2 inches thick.

Fans of the Olympics will recognize icons representing each sport, and visitors to the US Olympic Training Facility will find larger than life size versions designed by Palmer Engineering throughout the campus.  Each two dimensional figure portrays athletes in action in bright, monochromatic poses.  Our aluminum tennis player, for example, touches the ground only at the tip of his shoes in mid serve, perhaps offering a bit of inspiration to the athletes who have so inspired all of us.

Stan Lee’s superhero packs incredible punch in a 6’ frame.  Our version at Universal Studios clings to the side of the Spiderman Adventure attraction with a slightly larger frame - 60’ long to be exact.  Touching the building at just six locations, this three dimensional figure has an aluminum skin on an aluminum tube skeleton.  Our Spidey covers 60’x20’ and leans out from the building at 25 degrees, ready to spring just like Peter Parker’s smaller alter ego.
