Located in the heart of USU campus, Gary Lee Price’s sculpture Synergy is on display joutside the Mehdi Heravi Global Teaching & Learning Center. In his practice, Price depicts people and objects that capture the human spirit in a positive light and on an upward journey. One of Price’s most common subjects is interactive hands that lift, join, or help one another. Synergy features six hands arranged in a circle and each hand grasps another in solidarity. Its title also exudes a sense of optimism. “Synergy” describes the interaction of two or more people or organizations to produce a combined result that is greater than the sum of their separate parts.
