is a collaboration between artist Janice Mauro and New Jersey architect David Wermert to fulfill the dream of an in-home gallery. The Goodwood space possesses a rare open-air beauty; the perfect place to view the textural, reverent, ritualistic sculpture of Janice Mauro. At Goodwood one encounters physical form as deistic feminine archetypes. The forms occupy architectural environs reminiscent of Goodwood itself. Sensuality and divinity merge in Janice Mauro's work. Her goal appears to be to tap into our inherent need for belief in a world that transcends our everyday experience and causes the viewer to stop, reflect and question.

In addition to the language of sculpture it is possible to encounter the language of wine at Goodwood due to Francois Saudeau's expertise. Francois and Janice have been married for 23 years and entertain guests and students of sculpture at Goodwood.
