Confluence is part of the Wichita Art Museum's collection. It brings the magic of the tallgrass prairie to the galleries. Comprised of 700 vertical rods swaying rhythmically like prairie grasses in the wind, Confluence is a mesmerizing kinetic sculpture. Video projections of awe-inspiring Flint Hills skyscapes complete the installation.
John Douglas Powers studied art history at Vanderbilt University and earned an MFA in sculpture from University of Georgia. He was a 2016 Guggenheim Fellow and recipient of a Joan Mitchell Foundation MFA grant. Powers currently lives and works in Knoxville where he is Assistant Professor of Sculpture at the University of Tennessee.
