Some more public art in Winchester, around The Square, this time.
Luminous Motion by Peter Freeman, in the grounds of Winchester Cathedral by The Square.
It's a six metre column of mirrored stainless steel, pierced by 500 fibre-optic light points.
It uses mobile phone technology and text messaging to allow passers-by to influence the display, changing colour according to text messages sent by members of the public.
It looks very good at night,
the discreetly lit Cathedral in the background
The Bollards:
All around The Square the bollards are to be found, all 16 of them. Inspired from some of the world's greatest painters, each bollard represents a painting. Such fun! More cities should follow Winchester's example.
