John Grade’s Reservoir Creates a Dialogue between Rain and People #ArtTuesday

NewImage

We’ve love to see a time-lapse of this sculpture! Or ya know, to travel to Borgo Valsugana to see it with our own eyes. From Colossal:

On designing Reservoir, Grade studied the Park’s ecosystem, carefully planning the installation in harmony with the surrounding landscape. “I became most interested in the way rain falls through this grove of trees, the canopy delaying the droplet’s journey to the ground as well as how quiet and sheltered the forest was during a heavy rain,” Grade tells Colossal. “I wanted to make a sculpture that responded to the rain directly as well as a sculpture that responded to people.”
