Hardly an original work, Lady was modeled from a picture of a sculpture by Alexander Calder. "Seeing this Calder sculpture in a book in 1991 was a defining moment for me. I knew if I could capture in my life just a smidgen of the childlike, playful attitude captured in this and his other work, I would be a much happier and more complete person. Although a copy, it seemed like a fitting tribute."

The first publicly displayed kinetic sculpture of the artist, this is representative of the artist's short-lived fascination with clocks. "This piece was a intended to represent the continuous groove of motion and energy that only The Artist (Prince) could produce through his jams. A colossal failure on that level, at least it made a really swell gift to a cello playing friend."
