‘While I Breathe, I Hope’ is a poignant reflection of Dan Lane’s optimism and belief in humanity's resilience. Conceived over five years ago, the sculpture's relevance has only grown in the face of today's global challenges. Lane envisions this piece as a statement about holding onto hope during troubled times, a sentiment that resonates deeply in 2024.

Crafted from stainless steel and set on a black granite base, ‘While I Breathe, I Hope’ showcases Lane's exceptional skill in manipulating robust elements to convey delicate themes. The sculpture invites viewers to interpret its meaning – is it being pulled apart or is it a symbol of humanity holding together through adversity? The artist's hope is that with collective effort, the world can move towards a more peaceful existence.

‘While I Breathe, I Hope’ exemplifies Lane's ability to blend the classical with the contemporary, the beautiful with the industrial. This masterpiece stands as a testament to endurance, optimism, and the enduring human spirit.
