Art Energy Design Launches the Power Flower
Art Energy Design launched its first project, the Pittsburgh Power Flower, a twelve foot wind driven kinetic sculpture in the form of a giant potted sunflower. Sun and wind energy are generated with a wind turbine driven by spinning flower petals and photo voltaic solar film leaf surfaces. The sculpture provides public access to DC power for laptops, phones and other electrical devices. The flower also powers colored LED lighting for dynamic night illumination.
Pittsburgh, PA, July 25, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Pittsburgh's first sustainable energy generating sculpture comes to life.
Art Energy Design launched its first project, the Pittsburgh Power Flower, a twelve foot wind driven kinetic sculpture in the form of a giant potted sunflower. Sun and wind energy are generated with a wind turbine driven by spinning flower petals and photo voltaic solar film leaf surfaces. The sculpture provides public access to DC power for laptops, phones and other electrical devices. The flower also powers colored LED lighting for dynamic night illumination. Electronic controllers maintain safe power levels and programmable lighting options. This is housed within ample signage for graphics and mission statements. The sculpture is transportable and
sets up easily for events and exhibitions.
David Edwards, founder of Art Energy Design explains, "The attention grabbing nature of large kinetic artworks is a great way to open a conversation about energy generation within the urban landscape."
The U.S. Department of State contacted Art Energy Design requesting a proposal for 30 Power Flowers to be potential gifts for the G20 delegates.
Art Energy Design creates public sculpture and designs sustainable technology application tools. The team is currently taking orders for custom sculptures for schools, businesses and institutions at large.
The sculpture is currently located in front of the 2000 Technology Drive building, where the Pittsburgh Technology Council is headquartered. The Power Flower is being featured in the second Annual Art + Technology Exhibition and can be seen until August 31, 2009.
