Artist Statement
The design for “Ripple” is inspired by the waves that flow from the harbor. At the edge
of this hill, nestled under the tree, the rippling of sound, light and water gather. The
visitor becomes a part of the natural cycle of the waves rippling back and forth towards
and away from the hill. It is a place to rest. The blue of the water and the lightness of the
clouds are reflected in the color of the pieces. Ripple is derived from the simple folding
of a sheet of steel. Ripple is a partner piece with “Sea Saw”, down the hill, by the dinghy
dock. Each create an opportunity to engage with the motion and energy of the harbor.
