Massachusetts sculptor George Sherwood makes kinetic stainless steel sculptures that dance in the wind and light. The choreography of each piece is governed by a set of basic movements, facilitated by an arrangement of aerodynamic surfaces connected by rotational points. The reflective qualities of the material help to integrate each piece into its environment, with shades of light, time of day, precipitation, and seasonal color all transforming the sculpture. In 2018 we installed “Grey Area“, one of our favorites among his transfixing kinetic pieces, at LaSalle Square in Downtown Providence, bringing a brief oasis of zen tranquility to the bustling cityscape.
