Angie's Umbrella, Metal sculpture at Western Avenue and Elliott Avenue intersection, Seattle, United States.

The red metal umbrella structure rises 30 feet high and rotates 360 degrees on its base according to wind direction at the traffic island.

The Department of Neighborhoods, Belltown Community Council, and local business associations commissioned the public artwork, which was completed in 2003.

The sculpture represents an inside-out umbrella design that acknowledges the frequent rainfall characterizing the Pacific Northwest region of Seattle.

Located at the intersection of Western and Elliott Avenues at Lenora Street, this permanent outdoor installation remains accessible throughout the year.

The perforated aluminum canopy and steel construction create patterns through black trim and red mesh metal while responding to natural wind movements.
