Rachel Hayes Art Installation: Round the Bend


The Dallas Art Fair and Klyde Warren Park are excited to bring an immersive experience from artist Rachel Hayes to the Park’s Ginsburg Family Great Lawn. Inspired by cascading color fields and landscapes, this textile banner of abstract geometric forms looks like stained glass hovering above the ground. The public can walk alongside and enjoy flashes of color as the sun interacts with the various textures and the wind creates a rippling effect resembling the movement of water…reminiscent of the current of cars driving underneath the Park.
