The Observatory

lead artist

The Observatory was one of five huts built for the Oregon Eclipse Festival in 2017.  It was inspired by the cosmic focus and outdoor environment of the festival, incorporating sunlight through reflection and refraction to create an evolving immersive space of rainbows.

A large spherical mirror at the top brought in light from outside, which was reflected through hanging glass prisms and mirrors and cast onto prismatic wall coverings.  A Seussian periscope allowed visitors to peer across the lake to the temple space and eclipse viewing area.
