LOVEwork at the Hopewell-Prince George Visitor Center represents the dynamics of the Hopewell-Prince George area. The “L” is constructed of poles made to look like the pilings of a pier and representing the area’s four marinas. A bench is built into the L , or dock, for people to sit down and take photos. The “O,” which looks like a gear, is constructed of old pipe flange with the gear pieces cut out of one-quarter-inch steel. Below the gear are two ears of corn made out of urethane foam. The O represents local industry and agri-business. The “V” is made of corrugated metal taken from a 100-year-old barn. Painted aqua with flat-metal waves, the V represents the confluence of the James and Appomattox Rivers here. A hammered steel fish jumps from the top of the V. The “E,” which is made of medium density overlay marine plywood, is painted with stars and stripes to represent the area’s strong military presence.
Visitors are encouraged to take photos with the LOVEworks and share with loved ones on Facebook at www.Facebook.com/VirginiaisforLovers or on Twitter with the special hashtag #LOVEVA. A complete list of the LOVEwork locations is at www.Virginia.org/LOVE.
