Dancing With Nature: A Captivating Wind Structure

Expressing the Vitality of the National Museum of Natural Science

The Dancing With Nature sculpture stands as a testament to the infinite freedom of scientific knowledge. Its three sets of intertwined infinity symbols represent the growth of scientific understanding without limitation. The sculpture's flowing curves and dynamic form highlight the vitality and energy of the National Museum of Natural Science, where it is installed.

What sets this public art installation apart is its wind-driven structure. Pulsating with the breath of nature, the sculpture responds to the wind, creating a captivating visual display. The stainless steel body of the sculpture features three different surface textures, including mirror surface, polished surface, and titanium plating. As visitors circle the sculpture, they experience its rich expression from different angles, truly immersing themselves in the wonders between nature and science.

The realization of the Dancing With Nature sculpture required meticulous craftsmanship and technical expertise. The sculpture is composed of three different bodies, each with its own surface treatment. To reduce resistance caused by the weight of the parts, ball bearings and tapered bearings were used at the two ends of the wind structure. The result is a seamless integration of form and function, where the wind-driven structure enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of the sculpture.

Located at the center point of the main moving line, the Dancing With Nature sculpture invites interaction from all directions. Visitors can approach and appreciate the artwork up close, making it a popular subject for photographers and tourists alike. Its installation in Taichung, Taiwan, in October 2018 has made it a prominent landmark, echoing the characteristics and functions of the National Museum of Natural Science.

The Dancing With Nature sculpture is not only visually captivating but also a recipient of the prestigious Bronze A' Design Award in the Fine Arts and Art Installation Design category. This recognition is a testament to its outstanding creativity and ingenious design, which seamlessly blend art, science, and technology. By contributing to quality of life improvements, this sculpture truly makes the world a better place.
