Morpheus - kinetic wind sculpture
Freddie and I often perch for a rest in the wee park above the Taylor River in Blenheim after walking along the river and climbing back up to road level. Its called 'Morpheus'by Phil Price of Nelson and was commissioned and placed by Marlborough Lines the local Power Line Company to commemorate 90 years of lines management.
They reckon it's a fit with ML since it's movement relies on engineering and energy.
Fascinating to sit under as it moves around and extends and shortens in the wind - no good just driving past - to really appreciate it stop - preferably underneath. I'm thinking we should go for more kinetics here in Marlborough - nearby is a fountain which can be described as kinetic, and a few hundred meters upriver is the new bright green sculpture featured by lizmagiz for the last two days - go visit it, just fantastic !
