The Awakening

National Harbor, MD

J. Seward Johnson Jr.'s enormous sculpture depicts a giant apparently clawing his way out of the earth, with separate head, hand, arm, knee and foot emerging from the sand. The work was moved from Washington, D.C. to National Harbor in 2008 and is freely accessible on the waterfront.
