Wind, Waves, and Light: Kinetic Sculpture by George Sherwood

May 1 - October 31, 2016 - Sherwood’s sculptures explore the aesthetic systems of space, time, and the dynamic relationships of objects in motion. The choreography of each piece is governed by a set of basic movements, facilitated by an arrangement of rotating joints and aerodynamic surfaces. Made of stainless steel and ranging in scale and size, the reflective qualities of this material integrate the sculpture into its space and animate the surroundings. Wind speed and direction, shades of light, time of day, precipitation, and seasonal color transform the qualities of light and movement. According to Sherwood, “Each sculpture is a three-dimensional painting of shifting light, drawing all the colors of the environment, pulling down the sky, drawing up the earth and gathering everything in between.”
