The public artwork, Letterdance, was created to reflect and to enhance the internationally diverse community of Minnesota State University – Mankato. The special concept for the three related sculptural installations is based on the idea of interlocking and interconnecting the building’s elements into a seamless artistic and architectural ensemble. The three suspended art installations visually integrate functional architectural elements of the building and provide strong orientation points at the south and north entrances of the building.
Letterdance was commissioned through Minnesota percent for Art in Public Places, a program sponsored by the Minnesota State Arts Board and the Department of Administration with support for this project from Minnesota State University – Mankato.
