Each Piece is a Cedar Cone
44" High by 32" Diameter at Base

Qanat consists of five wooden cones, each with an integral water system.   It was inspired upon seeing ancient under-ground water moving systems in North Africa and Central Asia.   As viewers pass by each cone they hear the sounds of rushing water much like the sounds emanating from the subterranean aqueducts themselves.
