“hyperboloid geometry creates a structural simplicity and sculpturally elegant authenticity to this spiralling artwork ”
- Ralph Parker ARB - Price & Myers
Twist is a permanent landmark sculpture that opened in December 2008. Visible on entry into Bristol from the M32, the 20-metre high tower is clad in an intensive layering of thin dark grey slates – a waste material from the roofing industry – and is lit using power generated from a combination of solar energy and wind power.
