Steel Wool over Steel Armature (1) Large Stack: 84 x 100 x 100 (2) Small Stacks: 60 x 71 x 71 1/2 acre site Commissioned for the James A. Michener Art Museum, Doylestown, PA Funding for installation provided by The Leeway Foundation, Philadelphia, PA Re-sited for Sculpture New Hope: Outdoors, 2006-07, New Hope Arts, Inc., New Hope, PA The Haystacks in the Fields series are sculptural compositions inspired by Monet's paintings of haystacks. I was attracted to the image of haystack on many levels. As an image it bears many levels of meaning. It is a haystack, an image from the landscape. It is a house, a magical abode in the field. It is observed nature, transformed, humanized.
