Red Ginger

Art appreciators and avid collectors can take advantage of the private art show service by the Marcus Ashley Gallery. Our staff can mount and arrange your favorite pieces anywhere within a 60-mile radius of the gallery. It’s the best way to enjoy viewing art in the company of close friends and family. Lyman Whitaker art can be installed on location to elevate the art-viewing experience. The sculptor’s wind sculptures have the power to command attention and appreciation. Whitaker fabricates his copper wind sculptures from the comfort of his Zion National Park studio in Utah.

The Red Ginger (or Ostrich Plume) plant is the perfect inspiration for Whitaker’s wind sculpture of the same name. This plant’s brightly colored bracts and glossy foliage make it instantly recognizable in household gardens and parks. Although native to Malaysia, the plant can be seen across the Hawaii island chain. Whitaker captures the plant’s attention-grabbing details in Red Ginger. The flowering spike of the plant is carefully arranged and welded in place to mimic the plant’s form. As the wind sculpture spins silently on its axis, it imbues a space with calming energy and comfort.

Red Ginger will look incredible in a backyard, field, or garden amidst other blooming varieties.
