Awarded by national competition, the permanent installation suspends 4
stories over a grand stairway and spans over 96ft. in length. The Music
Center at Strathmore, North Bethesda, MD is home to the Baltimore
Symphony, National Philharmonic, City Dance Ensemble and Levine
School of Music.
After creating concept drawings of the space, I realized the artwork
needed to reflect its environment without imposing upon it. The graceful
shaped forms are abstract and represent music itself without being a
literal interpretation.
The clear prisms and aluminum arcs gently move and turn with the
natural air currents creating light reflections throughout the course of the
day, making the sculptural environment an ever-changing experience for
the viewer.
