TRISKELE is a freestanding sculpture that is inspired by Irish iconography and contributes to the strong Irish sentiments of the Rosemount community. It serves as the focal point for the Robert Trail Library, complimenting the strong contemporary lines of the architecture. The triple spiral or triskele appears in various forms of Celtic art and consists of three interlocking spirals. It is a symbol for eternal life and one of the oldest symbols of human spirituality.
