Artwork: Flower Dancing in the Wind
City condition notes

2010 Sculpture Walk People's Choice Award winner. The sculpture depicts a Native American woman standing atop a rock outcropping. Her proper right leg is bent at the knee and lifted backwards. The woman is arching her back with her head uplifted towards the sky. Her arms are lifted and extended backwards and morph into a wing-like shape from the edges of dress sleeves downward, which also blends in with her flowing hair. The surface has been patinated with several different colors; black for her hair, brown for her dress, shoes, and “arms”, gold for her skin, and green at the base. The figure’s dress includes a beaded necklace detail that has been painted with blue, iridescent acrylic paint. According to the artist, the entire piece has had several coats of Incralac® lacquer applied to the surface. The piece has been mounted on a ferrous metal plate that has been welded to 2.5” sq ferrous blocks, which in turn has been welded to painted ferrous metal strips embedded in a concrete base. It is unknown how the bronze is attached to the ferrous metal plate. There is a 2.5” gap between the ferrous metal plate upon which the sculpture is mounted and the concrete base. The concrete base is seated on wood inserts about 2” off the ground.
