Mirage
As part of Kielder Partnerships acclaimed Art and Architecture programme Japanese architect and sculptor Kisa Kawakami was commissioned to create an artwork that would reinterpret the landscape of Kielder forest from his own unique view point.
'Mirage' consists of a thousand stainless-steel disks hanging in a three-dimensional cloud from wires stretched between the trees. The artwork shimmers in the forest landscape, altering its appearance as weather conditions change, the sun moves across the sky and the wind strength fluctuates.
