Meriem Bennani’s Foam Tornado Touches Down on New York’s High Line

Meriem Bennani’s first public sculpture, Windy (2022), touches down on New York City’s High Line, kicking off the summer season of the High Line Art program. Installed on 24th Street through May 2023, Windy is a tornado-shaped kinectic structure that is made from black foam and spins so fast, its details escape perception. “Inspired by the dynamism and constant movement on the High Line,” the Moroccan artist created a sculpture that “captures and works within this urban energy.”
