Neverbust Chain

INSTALLED IN 2000, THE NEVERBUST Chain located in downtown Columbia, South Carolina, connects two large office buildings in whimsical industrial embrace.

While the massive links of the chain look far too large to be real, they are in fact made of steel that the artist had professionally welded together in the interest of safety since the span hangs ten feet over an open public alley. The installation was hefty enough that it required 2,000 pounds of hydraulic pressure to complete the final link.

Conceived of by longtime Colombia artisan Blue Sky (nee Warren Edward Johnson).
