This piece is pure Terry: witty, composed, and quietly subversive. A lone figure poised to dive into a museum pool—framed by the bold geometry of the architecture and the unmistakable “NO SWIMMING” sign—creates a perfect visual contradiction. The sculpture at center adds a layer of institutional seriousness, while the diver injects a flash of irreverence. It’s a digital collage that feels like a staged moment, a postcard from a parallel Palm Springs where rules are gently mocked and art becomes part of the vacation.

The palette is sunlit and clean—terracotta, beige, and blue—evoking both desert heat and modernist cool. But it’s the tension between stillness and motion, permission and rebellion, that gives this piece its charm. It’s not just a snapshot—it’s a wink.
