Blending Italian inspiration with Kansas calm, Prairie Twist captures a fleeting moment of grace—a young woman caught mid-turn, eyes closed, enveloped in thought and surrounded by the imagined rustle of tall prairie grass. Carved from radiant Colorado Yule Marble, the figure emerges in quiet contrast from a textured backdrop, her serene form highlighted by the soft, dappled patina of hand-applied tung oil. The piece balances delicacy with strength, its compact plinth ensuring steadfast presence wherever placed.
This sculpture, fifth in The Liberty Collection, draws on Martin Cooney’s evolving surroundings in the Flint Hills and a lasting impression from a Tuscan plaza. While inspired by a public scene in Pietrasanta, its essence is entirely private—an ode to reflection, to stillness, and to the elegance of the human form in motion and repose. Built to weather both time and nature, Prairie Twist belongs wherever tranquility is welcome.
