Flux
Flux was installed in November 2009 by a local Idaho artist named, Amber Conger. She created a sculpture crafted from copper and steel which she then formed into this beautiful non-representational shape! This organic sculpture from afar appears to be a backwards "3". But when the viewer gets closer to the sculpture they see that some of the panels aren't bolted on to the main sculpture and the appearance of the "3" appearance is quickly changed. This sculptures size and mass is something to marvel at. It's height is astonishing. Being approximately 7 feet high and weighing about a ton! It's not wonders that a piece like this is going for $4500. The sculpture is held together by fist size bolts and 2 feet long intimidating spikes. The Spikes are placed on the sculpture to prevent birds from landing on it but it also has been skillfully crafted to look as if it is part of the art work too. Being used to hold up some of the pieces away from the sculpture giving them a free floating appearance. The area it has been placed seems to complete this installment. The lake behind it seems to almost level out the harshness of this installment. This piece is currently located in McCall looking onto Lake Cascade. This piece also represents the area which can be beautiful and yet at other times it can have dangerous weather conditions. This sculpture has achieved the appearance of being able to reflect both of these. The way that the form has been created almost represents a wave like appearance.
