Sail Fence is a 2019 artwork by architect and Buckhannon native Bryson VanNostrand, made of concrete, steel, and canvas. It consists of a steel framework with festive, gently moving painted canvas panels and contemplates a vessel at dock awaiting its next voyage. The work was inspired by Christo's fabric installations, the lyrics of the Phish song Moma Dance, and the pleasure of burning matches for no reason in Tschumi, Fireworks. Its installation was a collaboration among ART26201, the City of Buckhannon, and the Moss Family. VanNostrand is the owner of Van Nostrand Architects PLLC, established in 1999, opened Lascaux Micro-Theater in 2001, and is a founding member of ART26201, a nonprofit organization dedicated to celebrating and promoting creative and inspirational opportunities in the Buckhannon community.
