April 14 · APRIL ARC — made for my back yard using the materials from the dismantled SHADOW DANCE sculpture that was at Villa Terrace Museum of Decorative Arts. The sand willow is the supports are triangles, and the reeds are bundled 5 thick ropes and suspended from the top/middle of the triangles. It moves in the wind. It is about 75 feet wide 6 foot high. These are the first photographs.
March 20 at 2:00pm · The show is definitely over. All verticals are out and stacked around the rings. Then all the rings were cut in half and removed. It could have lasted another year. The reeds were strong enough. bye bye SHADOW DANCE. — at Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum.
