Ascension is intended to evoke dual meanings: The concepts of Spiritual and Astrological Ascensions.
This sculpture is a woman's form suspended above the playa by wings that resemble a combination of silks and hawk wings representing Kelly's passion for aerial arts and her beloved red-tailed hawk. The body will arch toward the sky, reaching for ascension.
The inspiration for this piece was born from the unexpected loss of a beloved community member last November. An accomplished aerialist, Kelly created a performance art community based out of her studio that has inspired students and collaborators of all ages to pursue their highest calling and connect with their true selves.
