STARGAZE / PASSAGEWAYS / AIA TENNESSEE / RIVER CITY COMPANY / CHATTANOOGA / 2016
OVERVIEW /
Stargaze brings our focus back to the night sky. Through a network of interconnected lights, it brings the celestial bodies which have been lost in the city back into our view. A series of beacons are suspended above and along the alley through a network of tensioned cables and anchor points. The beacons are constructed out of lightweight and translucent materials, each containing a light source programmed to the character and quality of faraway stars light years away. Subtly shifting with the light of day and the dark of night, Stargaze provides a passageway that is both contemplative and playfuL.
