“bringing together art & nature”
Twisted House is a public artwork by American artist John McNaughton, located at the Indianapolis Art Center in Indianapolis, Indiana, United States. "Twisted House" was installed as part of the Center's ARTSPARK initiative. This sculpture, made of cedar wood, depicts a tall house bent on its side. The roof of the house digs into the forest floor and five square, glass windows travel upwards on the house and a distorted door juts to the right, open for viewers to interact with—inside one can step and look out a large window looking out into the forest. The windows each have sills with exterior flower holders and fake wood flowers. The piece sits on natural stone placed in the ground and the dirt of the forest grounds.
This was one of our early stops on the cross-country road trip my husband and I took this August. The house is located in the garden of the Indianapolis Art Center, which is also worth a visit if you have the time. You walk through the front entrance and straight through the gallery to the doors leading out back. There are plenty of other sculptures around and a bronze statue of a man is across from the house. Make sure you take the time to look around the gardens, it was a great place to stop and spread our legs for 30 minutes!
The address took us to the wrong place but where it took us was gorgeous it was a monument in the middle of downtown which was worth the stop. We never got to see the house due to the address being wrong
