The Dance - Tubular
Inspired by “The Dance” by Matisse and the difficulties of creating the feelings of motion and rhythm in solid hard materials Jay finally accepted the challenge in 2000 and made the small version after he recovered from a herniated disk and was once again able to feel the joy of dancing. He started the multi-year process of creating the large version while he was recovering from prostate cancer surgery. For Jay “The Dance” is not just about dancing but also the connections between the dancers and experiencing the joy of life. It is one of Jay’s favorite pieces.
