Anthony Howe's 'Kinetic Sculptures' showcase the amazing power of movement in art. These installations are captured on video in all their incredible beauty.

Head on over to [Mashable](http://mashable.com/2013/06/20/wind-powered-sculptures/) to check out all four videos, 'About Face,' 'Octo,' 'Vlast-O-Spline' and 'Cloud Light.' "In About Face, watch the facial expression change as the wind blows. Howe's work responds to a slight breeze in Octo and a more vigorous wind in Vlast-O-Spline. In Cloud Light is a stunning example of the role that light plays in his sculptures," writes Mashable's Allison Reiber.

The beauty of light and movement combined creates a truly stunning display of kinetic energy used as art by Anthony Howe in these videos.
