Description:
Intertwined figures of a partially nude male and female. The female stands on a jagged rock, proper left arm extended back and proper right arm extended upward. The male figure swoops over the female's proper right side and rests upside down on her proper right shoulder. His legs are extended vertically and his arms reach out toward the female. Although the male's head is upside down, he is twisted so that he is staring at the female's face. Both figures are partially draped in loose fabric which swirls around them as if caught in the breeze. The sculpture is installed in a covered courtyard.
