Spiral Canopy, one in a series of arboreal-inspired sculptures designed to accentuate important Morrisville institutions, is composed of repeating tiers of stainless steel rings. The crisp articulation of this sculpture is bold, powerful, and contemporary. Spiral Canopy underscores the Morrisville commitment to culture and engagement, as the work is an elegant, contemporary icon welcoming residents and visitors alike.
