The Design

About Dance with Life Verejné Umenie

Toto je verejné umelecké dielo vyrobené z nehrdzavejúcej ocele. Je inštalovaný v strede vodného prvku vo verejnom priestore. Hlavné telo sa skladá z dvoch prepletených symbolov matematického nekonečna. Celkový tvar je kombinovaný s vetrom poháňanou štruktúrou. Zvyčajne sa objavuje v statickom stave, ale keď je vietor väčší ako konštrukčný odpor, poháňa vetrom poháňané zariadenie, aby sa voľne otáčalo. Umelecké dielo symbolizuje nekonečnú slobodu skúmania života a vyjadruje pozitívnu a nádejnú víziu.
