Her Secret is Patience is a monumental outdoor sculpture suspended 100 feet above the new Phoenix Civic Space Park, at Taylor Street and Central Avenue. This iconic kinetic form maps the beauty of desert light and winds, and casts what the artist calls “shadow drawings,” much like those of clouds gliding over the landscape. The sculpture's supple-netted form reveals the choreography of breezes more easily felt than seen. Like the moon and seasons, the sculpture’s illuminated nighttime presence changes constantly through the year. It slowly shifts identity, like that of our landscape and skies. The artist was inspired by the desert flora: "I'm moved by the exertion of the Cereus, a spiny cactus putting down roots in search of water in the desert, her patience in saving up every ounce of energy until, one night, in the middle of the cool darkness, she unfurls one succulent bloom.”
