The sculpture may be interpreted in many ways, but the suggestion of immateriality—a frozen moment before a totally new form emerges—is the artist’s objective. #PublicArt #SFAC #KendallBuster This tweet was posted on September 15, 2023.
The suspended shapes create an illusion that the forms have decompressed and expanded and that the two visible sculptures might be fragments of a larger mysterious mass, like clouds. #PublicArt #SFAC #KendallBuster This tweet was posted on September 15, 2023.
