Grace Note

18’ 11” high x 6’ 1” wide x 11’ 2.5” deep

Grace Note is conceived as a gestural line in space. Capturing a flourish of upward movement, the sculpture is visible from outside the MacLaren Art Centre through the large second floor front window. Upon entering the centre Grace Note leads the eye of the viewer into the larger space of the building and its galleries with a joyful, orange, aerial twist.
