VMG: Velocity Made Good is the public art practice of Perri Lynch Howard, creatively engaging the public through site-specific sculpture, integrated art, sound installation, and community-based arts planning.
VMG…what does it mean?
Velocity Made Good, or VMG, is a term used in sailing, especially in yacht racing, indicating the speed of a sailboat towards (or from) its destination. Progress is often non-linear because boats are not able to sail directly upwind. The goal is to change direction as efficiently as possible to reach the desired destination in the shortest amount of time, given obstacle avoidance, changing winds, currents, and tides.
Behind every project is an incredibly capable team of engineers, fabricators and installers. We work collaboratively to bring your vision to life.
