This sculpture takes the form of a purely modernist aesthetic.

It works in tandem with technology partners.

It is centered on the creation of an interactive experience.

​

We are drawn to the Gate.
As we enter it senses us,
Reacting to each individual differently,
Sensing how each stands within the interior light,
It may respond with a gentle sigh or the soft intake of a child’s breath.

​

We feel the impulse to touch its reflective surface.
We see our own image reaching towards us.
It senses our touch and responds with music or the sound of rain.
We are lost in the moment.
And for a time viewer and artwork blend in an embrace of the senses.

Can Steel sigh? Can it laugh when we touch it?

​

We live in an age when sculpture can no longer remain mute. 

We must breathe life into our work if it is to truly serve us.

Once I saw a blue Jay fly across my vision. It landed in the grass in front of me.

In the bright sunlight its color was resplendent, and the movements of its flying were flawless.

It was in that moment I realized this was the perfect sculpture, one that could interact and react with its environment.

One that was exquisitely made.

​

Can I make steel sigh, or laugh?
I believe I can.
