Ascent the Wind is a public artwork by American artist Michael Helbing. The artwork is located in the ARTSPARK grounds of the Indianapolis Art Center, in Indianapolis, Indiana, United States.[1] While the Indianapolis Art Center titles it Ascent the Wind, the artist calls it Ascend the Wind.[1] [2]
Ascent the Wind is an abstract stainless steel sculpture that rests on a concrete base. The artwork curves upwards and shifts in a flowing manner as tentacle-like appendages form off the top section seeming to blow in the wind.[2]
The artwork is on temporary from the Shimmery Gallery and is listed at costing $40,000 for permanent purchase.[2]
