These two pierced forms allow you to see through the piece into another realm and weave the surrounding space into the sculpture. 'Summer Dance' uses an entirely abstract pictorial language to embody a highly stylized, universal image of a human figure, and reflects the artist's fascination with the relationship between man and nature.

Gift of Alfred Harrison and Ingrid Lenz Harrison, 2017.
