Charybdis II, Oman

This vortex sculpture was commissioned for the offices of Bank Muscat in Ruwi, Sultanate of Oman.

The vortex operates to a preset programme of about fifteen minutes where the vortex rises turbulently in the cylinder, until the water flows over the top edge and down the outer surface.  After a while the pump switches off and the vortex becomes calm and stable while the level drops.
