'Fayetteville to the Moon' is an interactive sculpture by William Bennett. The sculpture is just one of the artist's ongoing interactive works to bring people outside to interact, be inspired, and become part of the art. Unlike traditional artwork, the interactivity of the pieces takes its audience from viewer to participant as they move and play with the art.
As mentioned in The Fayetteville Observer, William Bennett has said that "the sculpture points to something outside of ourselves to the moon, to the stars, to the planets… we are in Fayetteville, we are here, but we're part of a large world, and so this sculpture points to it." The piece is a reminder for its viewers that there is more than what meets the eye, but it is ultimately connected within this space and time.
