"Enagua" (2015) by Ned Kahn
 
DESCRIPTION: kinetic ribbed chain mail sculpture of Kaynemaile seamless plastic mesh strips on a 60-foot high lantern-shaped tower.
From the artist: “Enagua”: a Latin–American word for an undergarment of billowy fabric that provides volume; also, a play on the Spanish words “en” and “agua” [“in water”] “since the wind over the ocean flows into Runway and blows over the Kaynemaile seamless mesh.”
