Type
Outdoor sculpture, turns with the wind

A single curved arm balanced on top of a rebar post, with weights hanging from both ends. The whole piece rests on one point, and the arm settles wherever the weights find their equilibrium.

It was made to live outdoors. Free to pivot, the arm turns with every change in the air and aligns itself with the direction of the wind.
