The Bucket Fountain is a quirky and iconic kinetic sculpture located in the Cuba Mall pedestrian mall in Wellington, New Zealand. Consisting of a series of colorful, asymmetrical buckets that fill with water and tip over at random intervals, it creates a playful and unpredictable water display. Designed by architects and town planners Burren and Keen, the fountain was installed in 1969 and has since become a beloved symbol of Wellington’s eclectic and creative spirit.
