In Cornwall Circle's present installation,
Davis observes, "The light, color, form, and texture of MOCA's Rotunda
gallery creates and environment that makes the sculpture seem to come
alive and into reality, organic, and functional." The sculpture
has been displayed at the CMNA. Davis finds that MOCA's gallery,
"creates a personal space that offers viewers a kind of personal
view with
the sculpture and helps them more closely examine the work." The
circular shape of the gallery, the light hardwood floor, and the
floor-to-ceiling windows allow a new sight of the sculpture's
symbolic design and beauty. Davis elaborates, "The room gives the viewer
a full range of sensory experiences with the work. The rich colors of
the sculpture vary with the time of day. As shadows move across the
work, new angles form, textures reveal, and patterns are created on the slate
pieces.
Over the years the museum has gotten very popular with all of it's
pictures and art forms from a wide variety of talented artists. From
small to big there all different in size, shape, color and the way they
look. The museum is freedom to think, to express yourself, to create a
whole new world of imagination, thought, or just to relax and think
