Permanent Installation, Baker-Butler Elementary School Charlottesville, VA

Wooden Dowels, Plastic Tubing, Steel Hoops

3’ diameter x 18’ high

The flexible modular system developed and deployed in Transformer 1 and Brass Screen, is reconfigured here to create a hanging basket-like centerpiece for the Baker-Butler Elementary School’s double height entry space.

The sculpture’s creation was expanded into a participatory curriculum for students in grades 2 through 5. Students interacted with the artist and helped construct modules that went into the making of the final piece.
