The "Wind Cathedral” is a site specific architectural structure that both protects and shelters the inhabitant while also celebrating the forces of nature through a constantly changing interior space.

The artwork is a site specific response to the Perdue cross (meaning the lost cross in English) which was placed in this location following the tragic death of a woman who become lost 200 years ago and ultimately perished in a terrible storm on the site.  

The Wind Cathedral surrounds this cross with a new space which recognises the story of the woman’s death and allows the visitor to contemplate their own relationship with the natural world.
