George Rickey

Three Oblique Lines Conical Path III

1991

Three Oblique Lines Conical Path III is a kinetic sculpture by American artist George Rickey, crafted from highly polished stainless steel. Three slender, elongated blades extend outward and move gracefully in response to subtle air currents, tracing slow, sweeping arcs through space. The work exemplifies Rickey's mastery of engineered movement, balancing precise mechanical construction with an organic, almost meditative sense of motion.
