This sculpture tells us there is a copper man holding his hammer and chisel to carve himself. We can see he has already done his head and hand, he is trying to make his lower part of the body. I think it represents hard-working, the man was very strong , he has many muscle. In addition, hammer and chisel are symbol of labor, similar as the symbol of the Communist Party, a sickle and hammer.
What's more, this statue represent a very important point- self-reliant. American believes people should rise up through their own effort, like the state expressed the man is making himself by himself. Besides that, people have right to make their life better. The man has already done his head and body part , that mean he decided half of his life, but he can carve his other part of body whatever he want. People
