Pegasus - 7.5m.x 4m.x .8m.

Copper and steel sculpture at the approach to Cork airport, Ireland. The sculpture creates the image of a winged horse when viewed from the road from Cork and operates as an abstract work from all other angles. PEGASUS includes fibre-optic lighting and appears as a constellation during the hours of darkness. Siting of the artwork took place on August 11th 1999, during the total eclipse. Commission organised by the National Sculpture Factory of Ireland.
