Fountain

Fountain

Taking the shape of springing water of fountains, the artwork is enormous that brings impacts not only visually but to other senses as well for the visitors. Different from the conventional processed timber, the artwork preserves the primitive, irregular shape of woods. Under the scourging sun in the summer, the arch with light and shadow intertwined reduces the heat. Shedding the tone of sunshine to highlight the texture of wood, the landscapes of the artwork vary on the inside and outside.

Material:Wood

Dimensions:6 ✕ 6.5 ✕ 12m

Nikolay Polissky

俄羅斯 Russia

Formerly a member to Mitki, an underground art group of the Soviet Union, the artist partook in the 11th Venice Biennale on behalf of Russia. Polissky excels at intervening outdoor space with gigantic sculpture. His artworks oftentimes are enormous in size and magnificent in scale as close as that of a building or a hill.
