The City Beautiful is a sculpture piece shown at Typeforce 6 in Chicago 

Greetings From Chicago: The City Beautiful. The World’s Columbian Exhibition sparked The City Beautiful movement, and provided Chicago with a number of impressive and grandiose works of architecture, as well as a comprehensive city plan drawn up by David Burnham. The intention of The City Beautiful movement was to ‘promote beauty, and also create moral and civic virtue among urban populations.’ The city of Chicago continues to take pride in the fruits of the movement, but some argue that the efforts prioritized aesthetics over social reform. Taking cues from the City Beautiful movement, my piece is influenced by neoclassicism and seeks to display ornament, grandeur and harmony. However, because modern Chicago’s population experiences significant gun violence caused in part by widening socioeconomic disparity, it is comprised of 27,000 .22 caliber bullet casings.
