Made from translucent resin, the sculptures change color and brilliance as the light changes throughout the day.
“Joan and Jeremy have come up with some very creative ways to make use of our natural land forms and wildlife pond to exhibit these works,” said Bill Lawyer, Assistant Director for Park Development.
The works are mainly from the artists’ “Hudson River Pilings” series, which were originally conceived to become monumental-sized sculptures balancing on the tops of the old wooden pier pilings in the Hudson near Tribeca.
The exhibit is part of an ongoing commitment to bring public art and sculpture to town, under the guidance of the Rye Arts Center. “We are planning a number of installations over the next year and are working with the nonprofits, City, and County to create funding,” noted Bob Clyatt, a local sculptor involved in the projects.
