Positioned as if to take flight over the South Korean coast, Volante Seoul is a public sculpture hewn from a 12-ton block of pristine white Carrara marble. Its sumptuously curved wings are shot through with delicate gray veining — the result of ancient geologic processes that transformed ephemeral life forms into everlasting stone.
