Dignity of Earth & Sky: South Dakota’s newest Landmark
South Dakota has a new landmark of which it’s proud. This sculpture is known as “The Dignity of Earth & Sky”, or Dignity, and was completed in 2016. It’s located on a bluff overlooking the Missouri River near Chamberlain, South Dakota. Dignity is easily accessed as it adjoins a freeway rest area and the Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center.
Dignity is sculpture of a Native American woman which is crafted of stainless steel and glass. Towering 50-foot-tall, her outstretched arms hold a quilt featuring 128 blue and white glass diamond shapes that flutter in the wind. At night, LED lights make the diamond shapes glow (something we did not see).
