Celebrating Art & History: Water & Time at the Statesville Civic Center

In 2019, the Statesville Civic Center welcomed Water & Time, a stunning sculpture created by artist Carl Peverall. This remarkable work of art has become a symbol of reflection, unity, and the passage of time—key themes that resonate with the Civic Center’s role as a gathering place for our community.

Carl Peverall, known for his ability to blend natural forms with artistic expression, crafted Water & Time to represent the fluidity and enduring nature of both water and stone. The sculpture invites viewers to pause, reflect, and appreciate the beauty of balance and transformation over time.

Standing as both a visual and symbolic centerpiece, Water & Time is more than just a sculpture—it’s a testament to the intersection of art, community, and history. It highlights how the Civic Center continues to evolve while remaining a cornerstone of Statesville.

We invite you to visit the Statesville Civic Center, admire Water & Time, and experience how art brings meaning and connection to our everyday lives.
