It’s art of course!
Those of you who walk and cycle the Crab and Winkle Way
in Whitstable and have wondered what the construction near the railway
bridge is all about - it’s art of course! Rob Smith an ex student of
Kent Institute of Art and Design (KIAD) at Canterbury was commissioned to
produce the piece by the Crab and Winkle Way Working Group. He describes
it as "Superdream" using the Moire Fringe Effect – two sets of
lines, one constructed in front of another giving the impression of
apparent movement, when the spectator moves in front of the piece. The
sculpture is constructed from local chestnut poles and motorcycle wheels.
It is the seventh piece of art to be commissioned along the route. All
of the work has been supported by Brett and other sponsors. |
