Arena Sundial by Joanna Migdal and Edwin Russell3D ModelNoAI
A 3.6 metre-high cast concrete and bronze sculpture by Joanna Migdal and Edwin Russell 1999 At The Arena, Downshire Way
At first glance Arena Sundial comes across as a dramatic piece of sculpture, but when you look more closely it’s a fully functional object, too. As such it deals with all the science of sundials very precisely, fitting well with the spirit of all the technological industries that have surrounded this sculpture since it was commissioned.
Joanna Migdal has for the past twenty-five years devised and made sundials, clocks and other sculptural pieces for public institutions and private individuals. She was British Sundial Society Award Scheme winner in 2000. Edwin Russell has created sundials and sculptures for locations including cathedrals and shopping centres across Britain – notably opposite the new parliament building in Edinburgh, and inside St Paul’s Cathedral and Westminster Abbey in London.
