Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum
Shadow Dance was the first sculpture to be commissioned by the Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum for installation in the gardens. The sculpture is sited between an obelisk thatmarks the center of the lawn and the base of the bluff descending from the mansion. Made from willow branches and phragmite reeds, and tied together with jute twine, the entire design is structural. As described by Susan Barnett in the exhibition catalogue, “The work balances, not only as an integral structure but within the geometry of the formal gardens, poised between land and sky. The willow supports reach upward with crooked fingers while the horizontal ellipses ripple toward the edges of the garden, casting shadows below. The repeated ovals and circles suggest the infinite space beyond the garden gate. The sculpture dances.”
