Bas-Relief Wall-Hung sculpture depicting a ballet dancer and the movement effects rippling through her long skirt. This is an image Jackie has been fascinated with for many years and has depicted this same dance pose in glass several times. The carved wood is a particularly effective vehicle for capturing the tension and dynamism of the dancer. Very contemporary treatment. The figure itself is etched in the wood and the skirt is carved through the wood. The marine plywood was used because the dark phenolic glue creates strong graphic elements as the wood is carved away. The modern nature of the work is reinforced because of the computer-controlled tools used for the precise carving and etching.
