Wind Farm features five sustainable, self-powered pinwheels that will be installed in Peekskill, NY. The project was one of five selected artist submissions for Enlighten Peekskill, which seeks to illuminate the walk from train station to the Peekskill's city center with illuminated artworks.

Wind Farm will be constructed of high impact polystyrene for the blades, with a LEDs incorporated into its hub. As the wind blows, the pinwheel will collect the energy with wind turbine generators incorporated into each unit, allowing the LEDs to turn on.

This project is currently under construction with an anticipated completion of Fall 2023.
