"Tetrahelix and Son"
Cor-Ten steel, painted, 1983
Artist: Freda Tschumy
Inspired by the twisted double helix structure of a DNA molecule and solid triangular figures or tetrahedrons, Miami artist Freda Tschumy created this whimsical 38-foot-tall sculpture of welded Cor-Ten steel. Created in two parts, a ribbon of twisted steel comes off the end of each piece appearing to join beneath the sidewalk. Tschumy was intrigued by Buckminster Fuller’s theories on the triangle as the basis of the universe.
