Patrick Dougherty - Side Steppin'
Chapel Hill-based artist Patrick Dougherty enlisted help from volunteers to gather branches and saplings from Duke Forest and wove them into a large-scale sculpture outside the museum's main entrance. Dougherty is internationally known for his huge environmental sculptures with whimsical references to cocoons, nests, vessels and architecture. Last spring, he created a sculpture in the Museum Park at the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh. For more information on Dougherty and his work, visit www.stickwork.net.
