The Sleepwalker (A Comical Love Story)

The Sleepwalker, by Tony Matelli, was part of the New Gravity art exhibit in 2014 at Wellesley College's Davis Museum. The statue was prominently displayed beside the main road through campus. It generated a great deal of controversial attention as well as countless "selfies" of Wellesley students posing with The Sleepwalker.

 

After my daughter Katie's senior recital we stopped to take a few memorable shots of her in her gown with the Sleepwalker. I put a few of those pictures in a slideshow with one of her recital songs, Villanelle, from Hector Berlioz's "Les nuits d'été".

 

Wellesley's Music and Art departments both featured the slideshow on their websites. There is a 10 second intro before the Sleepwalker appears in the photo montage.
