Neptunus

Artist: Peter Mandl 1947-

Year: 1990

Material: glass

Location: North Course

The five-meter-high sculpture consists of a thousand glass panes of the now closed glass factory Pilkington in Halmstad, which are glued together and reinforced with polyester against wind and weather. Depending on how the light falls and how you relate to the work, the color of the sculpture, which is mainly green, changes. The name comes from the god of the sea, water and humidity in Roman mythology.

In the vernacular, the work is also referred to as "clothespin" because of the special shape.
