The sculpture Sun Dance was unveiled on November 20th next to the Lovers’ bridge in Sofia, Bulgaria. The unique monument is a project initiated by the AMATERAS Foundation to celebrate the relations between the two countries. The unveiling was part of the official 31st Days of Japanese Culture in Bulgaria, which is a traditional and well-known event organised by the Embassy of Japan in Bulgaria.
The sculpture is de facto a kinetic work installation of solar disks, driven by the wind. The author of the sculpture is Todor Todorov.
The project was supported by four of the members of the Japan-Bulgaria Business Association – Astellas Pharma, JAPE, JTI, Takeda.
