An installation of twelve cylindrical posts on a landscaped earthwork, which overlooks the River Orwell in one direction, and the new estate on the former airfield in the other. The posts are arranged in a horseshoe pattern at varying heights, with one central post slightly higher than the rest. Each post is surmounted by a wing-shaped vane, which changes colour according to the angle from which it is seen and its movement in the wind. The vanes rotate individually to create changing patterns against the backdrop of the sky. The site is a former Second World War airfield and includes a conservation area for wildlife.
