Installed in the rural landscape in June 1996 along Route 1 in Northport, Maine, the "Fiddlehead" is an inviting and dramatic tensioned fabric sculpture. The conical "Fiddlehead" spirals inside of itself and addresses the notion of incompletness. It is an enclosure, yet it suggests openness. The transparent membrane gives the illusion of a continuous inwardly winding spiral through which one might mysteriously disappear. The "Fiddlehead" measures forty by forty feet and reaches twelve feet in height. The "Fiddlehead" is the first of seven conical landscape sculptures.
