William Lanzillo
Sky Loop
Sky Loop is intended to span a walking path to provide a dynamic sense of organic movement that viewers can experience as they walk underneath the form. The sculpture frames the sky above as it rises out of the ground and then rapidly flows back into the earth.
It weighs roughly 520 lbs, which is relatively light given the scale of the work and accounts for the light airy feel of the sculpture. Its overall dimensions are 22′ x 13′ x 19′. The inner dimension, where a pathway would go, are 8”’ high clearance at its lowest point right next to the base, and an 8′ space between the two footings (this distance is slightly flexible because the sculpture has a little give to it allowing for adjusting of this gap).
ARTIST BIO:

He then received his BA from Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota in 2019. He majored in Studio Art and Psychology with a minor in Africana Studies. He is both a sculptor and a printmaker.
