Artist Gwen Quigley created a large floating sculpture using the natural materials that live, grow, and exist in the Keuka Lake Watershed, along with discarded, recycled, and salvaged materials from local human existence. These materials were gathered from the community and the land, processed, and then formed into an elegant and engaging sculpture.
