Steel sculpture covered in white enamel paint that rests along the Addison Fitness trail. It is flooded with light at night. This artist started out as a sign painter, and went on to painting on canvas. From there he went to kinetic art, and in the 70s moved to working with steel. These steel works are designed to be viewed from all angles and have often been characterized as new constructivism; he continues to work in this style today. Some of his most popular series in this style are the Folded Square Alphabets and Numericals, Folded Circle, Donuts, and Steel Watercolors
