Skybow New Cultural Landmark

Skybow

Skybow is a landmark sculpture created for Wuyou Town in Yan City, Jiangsu Province. The form is based on the local topography, which resembles a bow, with the Chuanchang River as the handle and the Pearl Creek as the string. The main structure takes the shape of a drawn bow to express readiness and courage. Relief patterns on the surface form a cultural totem. The inner ring of the pedestrian walkway is engraved with the historical timeline of the town. Lighting, a water curtain and flowing lights complete the setting.
