Wind sculptures by Anthony Howe

Artist Anthony Howe creates delightful kinetic sculptures that spin, rotate, and otherwise come to life when exposed to wind. Howe handcrafts the sculptures from steel and fiberglass in his studio on Orcas Island in Washington State. Each sculpture features dozens of moving parts that create intricate and hypnotic patterns as they move with the wind. To see more videos of Howe’s sculptures in action, check out his YouTube page.

I attempt, with an economy of means, to construct objects whose visual references range from lo-tech sci-fi paraphernalia to microbiological or astronomical models. Utilizing primarily stainless steel armatures that are driven either by hammered curvilinear shapes or flat fiberglass covered discs, I hope the pieces assume a spare, linear elegance when conditions are still, mutating to raucous animation when the wind picks up.
