Dignity Statue
Dignity Statue in Chamberlain, SD is a monumental sculpture created by artist Dale Claude Lamphere, standing 50 feet tall and weighing 12 tons. Made of hundreds of pieces of stainless steel, the sculpture depicts a native woman adorned with a starquilt made of 128 diamonds, representing the colors of the surrounding water and sky. Dignity serves as a symbol of reverence for the Native Nations of the Great Plains and the sacredness of the land.
Designed to endure as a lasting testament to the shared belief in the sanctity of all beings and their place in the world, Dignity of Earth and Sky was initiated in 2015 and officially dedicated on September 17, 2016. This awe-inspiring sculpture stands proudly on a bluff overlooking the Missouri River, inviting visitors to contemplate the profound connection between humanity and the natural world.
