Grace Note
A permanent sculpture commissioned for the entrance of the MacLaren Art Center in Barrie Ontario. Awarded in 2019. To be completed in Fall 2024
Artist Team: Carl Tacon and Lyn Carter
Grace Note is conceived as a gestural line in space. Capturing a flourish of upward movement, the sculpture is visible from outside the centre through the large second floor front window. Upon entering the centre Grace Note leads the eye of the viewer into the larger space of the building and its galleries with a joyful, orange, aerial twist.
