Shanghai, China
SHANGHAI — Internationally recognized sculptor Ken Kelleher, also known as Anchorball, has installed Velocity, a three-metre stainless steel sculpture, for a private collection in Shanghai.
Part of Kelleher’s Elemental practice, Velocity captures movement and momentum in a resolved sculptural form, its finish continually animated by the surrounding architecture and light.

A private collection is where a work can be lived with every day. Velocity was made to reward that — to look different each time the light changes and never fade into the background.— Ken Kelleher (aka Anchorball)
For collectors, the placement demonstrates how Kelleher’s monumental vocabulary can be realized at the scale of a private estate while retaining museum-quality presence.
Velocity is part of Kelleher’s ongoing Elemental series, installed in private, public and cultural settings internationally.
