Description
Water flows inside the rotating O shape towering sculpture and into wading pools. It is a four-story tall sculpture of steel and weighs 24 tons. It is equipped with 366 jets that spray a curtain of water as the entire structure rotates, taking 15 minutes to make one revolution. It was dedicated June 7, 2007 at America the Beautiful Park in downtown Colorado Springs, Colorado. Designed as an infinity symbol, and titled “Continuum” by David Barber and Bill Burgess, this sculptural fountain represents the life-giving movement of water between the atmosphere and the earth.It’s a great time for little ones who want to sit in the water and splash before or after a picnic lunch at the park, or before the Farmer’s Market.
