Twisted House
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. Description The sculpture is made of cedar wood and depicts a tall house, bent in such a way that it appears to rest on its foundation and roof. 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.
