‘Metallic Water Lilypads’ is a nature based, eco-friendly sculpture to be installed in a dam, pond or any suitable farm waterbody that can use the natural light bouncing off the recycled CDs to create a spectacle when placed in water. Each of the lily pads refracts sunlight to reflect the colours of the surrounding farming area, changing shades as the sun changes position. Depending on what time a lily pad is viewed, it could be grey, pink, blue, or green.
