About 'Updraft'

Let your cares float away as you peacefully watch Updraft mysteriously move with the wind: up, down, 360 degrees around.

Updraft blends graceful form and great function. It accurately always points downwind, acting as a weather vane via highly skilled metal crafting from Steve Rumore of Metalworks Wanaka that results in a stunning centre-piece for any view.

Poised on a tall mounting post, the kinetic balancing arm and the hand built bird can be taken apart, flat packed and re-installed easily. This sculpture can come to your home with as much grace and ease as it inspires!
