Icarus These four bronze figures are inspired by the ancient Greek myth of Icarus. In this story Icarus' father, Daedalus, created wings made from feathers and wax for himself and his son to flee from captivity on the island of Crete. Icarus is warned by his father not to fly too close to the sun or the sea. However, exhilarated by the experience of flight Icarus flies too high, his waxen wings melt and he falls to his death. Brown's sculpture encourages sympathy with Icarus' unbridled exuberance and an acceptance of its ineveitable tragic consequences.

in the stream "The concept of this sculpture features a vast sky and/or the universe and it expresses something that we cannot see such as wind and air. One can enjoy the movement engraved in the sculpture itself, but on the other hand, I think it also offers the viewers to feel atmosphere and time through their five senses. Although this sculpture is temperate and sensitive, it is also abundant and embracing, reflecting the image I had of Canberra during my visits. I hope that many people will love the sculpture’s warm-hearted expression and I hope this sculpture stays and lives in the hearts of each person visiting the Arboretum.” Kozo Nishino
