Water Wheel, 2003
Wood, hydrocal, burlap
The Water Wheel reflects the past, the present and the future of Lowell. Water
is a powerful force that used in combination with wheels in the past made energy
to keep the factories producing. Now the water forcefully moves through the
beautiful channels of the city creating a cool energy for the viewer’s
enjoyment. The water and the wheels make us think about the lost past, the
energetic and ever-changing present and the hope for the ever-flowing waters
of the world, that they may be preserved and forever giving of nourishment.
