This kinetic sculpture is named "Spinning Progress" and is located at 15877 SW Barrows Road in Beaverton, Oregon. The sculpture by artist Reven Swanson from Denver, Colorado was installed in the summer of 2017. It measures 18 feet tall and is made from stainless steel, fused glass and stone. The sculpture has large spinning wheels activated by the wind which was calm when I visited so I did not make a video. There is no official off-street parking suitable for cars but there is a small area next to the sculpture accessible with a 4x4 vehicle. Parking is allowed on SW 160th Street south of Barrows Road about 200 feet distance. The coordinates are set at the Spinning Progress sculpture.
