Saturn Sail

Saturn Sail 

Harold Pastorius, 1985

Saturn Sail by Harold Pastorius is located at 2700 Saturn St., Brea, Ca., which puts it about a block away from Beam Relay which sits on the opposite side of the street. These two sculptures were produced in the same year and installed close to one another, but you would never guess they were produced by the same artist.

This imaginative piece invites the mind to see the energy created by this device for long distance solar travel. The red evokes a sense of power and energy generation, while the contrasting blue instills a sense of change and discharge of the energy, while the elliptical hole becomes the centre of thrust for this propulsion devise. How far will it take you or your imagination?
