A new statue is turning heads in Times Square. The 12-foot tall bronze sculpture was unveiled last week. In the bustling Crossroads of the World, the statue is already making people stop and reflect.

A 12-foot bronze statue of a young woman, entitled "Grounded in the Stars," is catching the attention of the art world and passersby alike in New York City's Times Square.

The statue is a part of a series called "Grounded in the Stars" by British figurative artist Thomas J. Price, in an attempt to help deconstruct preconceived notions of people's identities, while also emphasizing how Black individuals can claim their space freely, on their own terms.
