ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Artist David Green created 'A Brief Fandango Near the End #2" as part of a series of found-object sculptures called "Dancing on the Wall of Time". Fascinated with weathered surfaces and discarded objects, these artworks symbolize the beauty and joy we experience, even though our bodies and lives are impermanent.
