About Flowers And Butterflies Are Dancing Offentlig Skulptur

Blomster og Sommerfugle Danser er en offentlig kunstskulptur opstillet på en stor plads i Taichung, Taiwan. Værket er fremstillet af syrefast rustfrit stål, sømløst svejset og poleret, og er belyst med RGB-lys. Spejlblanke og matte overflader reflekterer himlen, planterne og det skiftende lys, så skulpturen smelter sammen med landskabet. Åbne former lader vinden passere igennem og reducerer vindmodstanden. Formerne minder om Formosa-liljen og sommerfugle. Skulpturen måler 1400 x 1100 x 650 centimeter og blev samlet på stedet ud fra tolv dele.
