About this artwork
"Pas de Deux," a 2007 sculpture by David Hayes, showcases his characteristic use of welded steel, painted in vibrant red, blue, and black hues. Measuring 16.5 x 13 x 12 inches, the sculpture captures the essence of its title, which translates from French to "Step of Two," commonly used in ballet to denote a dance duet.
The sculpture features interlocking forms that twist and turn in an intimate dance of shapes and colors. The curvilinear forms suggest… movement and interaction, reflecting the dynamic and harmonious relationship typical of a pas de deux. The choice of bold, primary colors—red and blue—contrasted with black enhances the visual impact of the piece and emphasizes the separate yet connected entities participating in this metaphorical dance.
