Cornwall, England, in a sheltered valley overlooking St Michael's Mount. It has exotic plant filled gardens which along with the dramatic landscape provide a perfect backdrop for the modern art installations housed there. As well as the sculpture garden, Tremenheere has a gallery, shop, nursery and restaurant.
The Restless Temple, designed by Penny Saunders, is a sculpture designed to be in constant motion. Made up of fourteen hollow cedar columns with cores of tensioned steel, counterweighted by concrete weights and connected by an articulated framework, restless Temple was in development for almost fifteen years.
In Saunders' own words, Restless is about 'flexibility in the face of the mighty forces of Nature', and sways freely in winds of up to 60mph.
