A kinetic weather vane.
The top portion - the vane - is made of stainless steel and aluminum. The base
is hand-formed of mild steel and it is meant to acquire rusty patina over time. The
main portion always points into the wind; the two side fins "swim" in
a mild breeze and can rotate full 360 degrees, depending on the strength of the
wind.
Media: stainless steel,
mild steel, aluminum.
Size:
15 ft. high, 5 ft. wide, 5 ft. deep
