Our charge for Art in the Garden was, in part, to consider the differences between exterior and interior sculpture. Here, I have attempted to make both, to create a dialogue between the outside and the inside, between the viewer and the work, perhaps even between two viewers experiencing the work simultaneously. Like most of my work, Tour is an exploration of the expressive potential of circular forms and an acknowledgement of art I admire—in this case, one of my favorite sculptures, The Passing Winter, by one of my favorite artists, Yayoi Kusama.
