Haas noted that the works respond to their environment. In the Phoenix desert, for instance, the pieces blended in so naturally that the cucumber nose on Summer seemed to resemble a cactus. It looked dramatically different in New York. “The garden was keen for it to be in the courtyard,” said Haas, “because the juxtaposition of the sculptures against the 19th-century architecture and the hedging made for a very strong tableaux.”
Although Haas maintains that he’s done with making movies, he does see connections between the two genres. “There’s a theatricality and operatic quality to Four Seasons that you might find in my film work,” he said. And similarities in modus operandi: “I come up with an idea, and I have other people collaborate with me on the making of it. So I’m ‘directing’ sculpture.”
