Streamlines

North Carolina Zoological Park, Greensboro NC 2004 Road striping paint, glass reflective beads, stone and bronze insets: 400’ long.

The hydrological patterns of the nearby stream were enlarged and painted onto the meandering path with road striping paint. The areas of turbulence as the path curved or went past a manhole cover created patterns of vortices while the straight portions of the path were depicted with parallel lines of laminar flow. These amazing patterns are invisible to the eye, but present in all flowing streams.
