The Watchful Citizen & Haymarket | 2009 | Photo by Jen-Kuang Chang

Murky snowy day. 2:13 P.M. Alternate between dried cranberries, café noir, Ferrero Rondnoir Dark Chocolate, Moving Pictures: Contemporary Photography and Video from the Guggenheim Museum Collection, and archiving sunny-happy-smiley photos taken in a sunny-happy-smiley November day in the Haymarket with the Watchful Citizen. Old memories like wide-eyed homeless kittens hungerily waiting right outside the door. Meow.

The Watchful Citizen sculpture by Elizabeth Stanley Wallace is located on the corner of 7th and P St. in the Historic Haymarket district in Lincoln, Nebraska. The title of the sculpture is linked to an inscription, “The Salvation of the State is the Watchfulness of the Citizen,” over the main entrance of the Nebraska State Capitol Building.
