Stephanie Vinson
High School Grand Prize Winner

Stephanie sculpted an earthen-media fountain that depicts a world being held up by the actions of people who conserve energy and recycle.

"My project depicts a world being held up by the actions of individual people who conserve energy and recycle. Without the support of individuals, the Earth would fall; prosperous forests would be converted into desolate deserts, white-sandy beaches transformed into hazardous waste sites, and life would cease to exist as what we currently know it to be."
