THE CAPTIVATING NEW 

OUTDOOR EXHIBITION 

ENCHANTED TREES by Poetic Kinetics is comprised of ten tree sculptures ranging in height from nine and a half feet to over seventeen feet tall. This exhibition seamlessly blends the harmony of nature with the captivating allure of kinetic motion.

From a distance the ENCHANTED TREES are a beautiful sight to behold, moving gracefully in the wind, their colorful foliage casting dappled light and shifting hues across their surroundings. When approached, the trees become an interactive experience, allowing visitors to pose and play in the kaleidoscopic light and shadows.

As sunlight passes through the tinted acrylic leaves, vibrant, colorful patterns are cast on the surrounding landscape, while the leaves coated in iridescent dichroic material refract the light into a rich and dynamic spectrum of ever-changing prismatic colors. The leaves shift and shimmer, their hues changing depending on the angle and intensity of light offering an experience that evolves as the sun moves across the sky, ensuring a unique encounter with every visit.
