Pedestal & Sculpture to Own

The milkweed plinth is the centrepiece of Gunguo Sculpture Farm, situated on the summit of a prominent ridge in a meadow of wildflowers. Work displayed here will be the first to greet arriving visitors, and will be visible across long vistas from the farmhouse, sculpture workshop, and sections of the sculpture trail.

An 8-ton, reinforced concrete foundation is already in place, reaching 2 meters below grade and rising one meter above. This will act as an enormous counterweight to sculptures up to 6 meters in height.

The plinth itself will be clad in hazel granite. From afar, it will blend in with surrounding vegetation. Displayed work will appear to float above the wildflowers, including a large population of milkweed which attracts the endangered monarch butterfly each fall. Visitors who approach closer will marvel at the large scale of the installed work which will tower above them.

The milkweed pedestal will be illuminated from three sides by solar-powered lights (including a whimsical cast-iron lamppost) which will make it stand out during concerts, weddings and special events.
