Aeolian Harp

WAVEBREAKER
My entry for TRAIL in Teignmouth (sculpture made from recycled materials ) is a sculpture of an Aeolian Harp. An Aeolian harp is played by the wind ,(subject to the wind velocity), Teignmouth’s sea front is a windy environment , hopefully on occasions my harp will harness the wind.
The harp sculpture is made from an old pair of water ski’s ,yew branches from my yew tree prunings , plywood from a builders skip and a swivel axle from a trolley to allow orientation to the wind.
The water ski’s have the manufactures name of “Wavebreaker” , which could equally apply to sound waves as to water wave
