Perched in the grass outside Corporate Office Properties Trust in Columbia, Dalliance II sparkles in the sunlight, beckoning visitors to take a closer look. Artist Jeffrey Chyatte says the sculpture “speaks of chance meetings where companions become intertwined with a degree of permanence. The brushed metal patina reflects light, imbuing the energy derived from the liaison, while the sculpture’s materials – drawn from the earth – suggest a firm foundation.”
When he’s not creating sculpture, Chyatte works as a professor in the Biological and Chemical Services Department at Montgomery College. This is his sixth ARTsites exhibit.
