The Wings

-
Daniel Libeskind also designs sculptures. One of them is 'The Wings' - four giant aluminium sculptures with LED technology. They are situated the four corners of the Piazza Italia in Milan Expo (opened on 1st May 2015 and closed on October 31, 2015. Expo 2015's theme was "Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life")
The installations of LED lightning animated the public space with a constant flow of pulsating patterns and imagery. 

The sculptures are a combination between dynamic art and technical innovation. Wings have 10 meters high and dynamic form whitch for me looks like huge tree or growing plant. But name of this sculpture tells us that they can remind us wings maybe butterfly’s wings or bird’s wings. This sculpture reminds people about nature around us.

    It would be great if you could add a picture (there might be a copyright issue but I'm sure there are some open source ones).
    Are the different fonts the result of copying and pasting?

    It certainly seems like a cool concept. Has he made more sculptures like that?

Life Electric

-
Life Electric is a monument created by Studio Libeskind in collaboration with the business association of Como. Its a 16,5 meter high sculpture on the Lake Como in Italy. This is a public monument, homeage to famed scientist Aleksander Volta who hails from the city. He was born on 18th February, 1745, in Como, and died 5th March, 1827, Como. He was an Italian physicist, chemist and a pioneer of electricity and power. He invented a electrical battery and discovered methane. It’s made from stainless steel, polished to a mirror to reflect landscape around this is why this sculpture combines the natural elements of light, water.  Shape of this monument is very interesting and resembles two waves.  The form reaches both up towards the sky and goes down to the water, representing the two poles of energy.  “It is an amazing honor to be able to give this work a home in one of the most beautiful places in the world—and a place very close to my heart,” said Daniel Libeskind.

Eco or money?

-
I was looking for a new water bottle and I found  some interesting accounts on Instagram. I checked their online shops and I was shocked, because there were bottles for about 100$. It’s so expensive. I know that being eco a kind of trend and this is very needed but it’s too much. Are we want to save the planet or make money? I think that more people will buy there things if they were cheaper. Also if people could buy these things they willsee that they can change their lives and habits for better. When I saw this prize a felt opposite and I get angry, that’s not the point.
