WINGS

JOHN HENRY

PAINTED CORTEN STEEL

TENNESSEE TECH UNIVERSITY, COOKEVILLE, TN

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH MJ ERECTORS, SEAN M. McCANN, P.E. (STRUCTURE AND SCULPTURE RESOURCES), DUROWELD

One of the last works John Henry personally had a hand in before his passing, and the first monumental commission of his work to be completed posthumously, Wings is a nearly 70 ft tall sculpture. Executed in corten steel and painted in the university signature purple, it stands outside the newly built Ashraf Islam Engineering Building at Tennessee Tech University, creating a focal centerpoint within the landscape that welcomes all visitors and passersby.
