- Hi, I'm Dejiah, and this is ArtQuest.

I'm here on the Shelby
Street Pedestrian Bridge
and saw this amazing piece of public art.
It's Ghost Ballet
by the artist Alice Aycock.
(people screaming)
It looks like a roller coaster,
(train whistle)
train tracks,
(boing)
a spring!
Let's take a closer look.
Do you see what I see?
Look at the lines.
They make a pattern to when
my eye follows the lines,
it seems like the object is moving.
In art, this trick is called movement.
The movement in this particular sculpture
draws your eye towards
the Cumberland River.
This sculpture is so large you can see it
from different places in the city.
Thanks to its shape and movement,
it looks different depending
on where you see it.
And now you know that
art is all around you.
